Article Synopsis
- - Dermatoscopy is a non-invasive diagnostic tool that helps differentiate between mycosis fungoides (MF) and small plaque parapsoriasis (SPP), which can appear similar in initial stages.
- - A study involving 59 patients used videodermoscopy and capillaroscopy to assess vascular patterns, revealing that MF patients had significantly higher scores for specific vascular features and microvascular density (MVD) compared to SPP patients.
- - The research demonstrated distinct dermatoscopic and histopathological criteria that could help in accurately distinguishing between early-stage MF and SPP.
