Scleroderma, a connective tissue disease, often affects the skin. Non-invasive methods measuring skin thickness, mechanics, and blood flow can assess disease severity and treatment effectiveness.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Rheumatology
  • Medical Technology

Background:

  • Scleroderma encompasses various clinical types, frequently presenting with skin manifestations.
  • Cutaneous involvement can range from localized morphea to systemic multi-organ disease.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate objective, non-invasive functional methods for assessing scleroderma.
  • To determine the utility of these methods in tracking disease severity, progression, and treatment response.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing objective, non-invasive functional techniques.
  • Measuring skin thickness and mechanical properties.
  • Visualizing cutaneous blood flow.

Main Results:

  • Skin thickness measurements provide informative data.
  • Assessment of mechanical skin properties yields valuable insights.
  • Cutaneous blood flow visualization aids in disease evaluation.

    • Conclusions:

    • Objective, non-invasive functional methods are beneficial for scleroderma assessment.
    • These techniques offer a reliable way to monitor disease evolution and treatment efficacy.
