Article Synopsis
  • The study compares reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) and a new, cheaper 400x magnification dermatoscope (D400) for diagnosing pigmented genital lesions.
  • Researchers analyzed data from 207 lesions, finding that D400's results largely aligned with RCM's, especially for various cell patterns.
  • The findings suggest D400 is a practical and affordable alternative to RCM for examining pigmented genital tumors, particularly melanosis.

Background: Early melanoma detection is the main factor affecting prognosis and survival. For that reason, non-invasive technologies have been developed to provide a more accurate diagnosis. Recently, line-field confocal optical coherence tomography (LC-OCT) was developed to provide an in vivo, imaging device, with deep penetration and cellular resolution in three dimensions.

Article Synopsis
  • * A cost per responder model was created, comparing treatments like brodalumab, ixekizumab, and adalimumab, based on their effectiveness measured through the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI).
  • * Results indicated brodalumab was the most cost-effective option, showing the lowest costs per PASI100-responder in both countries and outperforming other biologics in the same category as well.
