Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The following Special Issue, "Innovations in Dermatologic Diagnostics: Integrating Dermoscopy, Imaging, and Non-Surgical Therapies", explores the transformative role of non-invasive diagnostic technologies in modern dermatology. It highlights cutting-edge advancements in dermoscopy, novel imaging modalities, and their integration with non-surgical treatments to enhance the accuracy of skin lesion evaluation—from early cancer detection to the management of benign and malignant conditions.
By bridging diagnostic innovation with therapeutic decision-making, this Special Issue showcases how multidisciplinary approaches are reshaping clinical practice. We welcome original research, reviews, and case studies that address emerging imaging technologies, artificial intelligence applications, and optimized treatment pathways—ultimately aiming to improve patient outcomes and redefine standards of care in dermatologic diagnostics.
