Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Dermatopathology plays a crucial role in dermatological care by helping dermatologists and other healthcare providers make accurate diagnoses and develop appropriate treatment plans for patients with skin diseases. It contributes to the understanding of the underlying mechanisms of skin disorders and guides the development of new therapies and interventions. The field of dermatopathology encompasses a wide range of skin disorders, including infectious conditions such as fungal or viral infections, inflammatory skin diseases such as eczema and psoriasis, and various types of skin cancer.
This Special Issue will examine the molecular mechanisms of skin diseases that are crucial for identifying therapeutic targets and developing effective treatments. New discoveries in dermatopathology involving new molecular diagnostics, advanced imaging techniques and the integration of digital pathology and artificial intelligence on experimental cytology will be highlighted.
