Inflammoscopy and Sethoscopic of inflammatory skin lesions

By: Elghblawi, Ebtisam

The term inflammoscopy merely implies trichoscopic distinctive features of inflammatory skin conditions; the common ones along with some rare ones, to demonstrate the usefulness, and to ease our understanding and help conclude if possible, aiding and supporting the diagnosis when it is equivocal. Previously, it was termed dermoscopy. It entailed an optical device that is used to detect skin malignancy promptly. It is also used to analyse inflammatory skin disorders and as a supportive tool in various non-neoplastic dermatoses such as inflammatory, infiltrative, and infectious diseases, however; it doesn't follow a standardised approach. It is non-invasive, easy to apply, and allows visualization of the epidermis, dermo-epidermal junction, and papillary dermis, in vivo magnification of the skin which cannot be seen with the naked eye. Dermoscopy employs a 10 to 100 microscopic visu-alisation with a light source to magnify the structures under the skin's surface. There are three kinds of der-moscopy: namely, conventional nonpolarized dermos-copy, nonpolarized contact dermoscopy, and polarized contact dermoscopy.
