New light scanner aims to replace the 'Skin Pinch' test for scleroderma
NCT ID NCT05672992
Summary
This study is testing a new, non-invasive imaging device that uses light to measure skin thickening in people with scleroderma. Researchers want to see if this new method is better than the current standard, where doctors pinch the skin to judge its thickness. The goal is to find a more precise and consistent way to track how the disease changes over time or responds to treatment.
