- Telangiectasia is a key feature of rosacea, necessitating effective treatment and standardized assessment tools for clinical evaluations.
- The study aimed to create and validate the TRoSA scale, a five-point photonumeric system to evaluate telangiectasia severity in rosacea patients, using feedback from 16 experts and 50 patient images.
- Results showed that the TRoSA scale has high interrater and intrarater reliability, making it a reliable tool for consistent clinical assessments and treatment evaluations in rosacea.
