Flash information
- Observation
- Dilatation, giant loops, haemorrhages and loss vary between panels.
- Limitation
- Do not quantify density without standardised field and scale.
Definition
Three examples of scleroderma capillaroscopic patterns.
Reading method
Read top to bottom: early, active and late.
Morphological description
Dilatation, giant loops, haemorrhages and loss vary between panels.
Source context
The original caption defines each pattern.
Differential diagnoses
These are not mandatory sequential stages in every patient.
Clinical correlation
Correlate the systemic-sclerosis context.
Clinical impact
Digital impact also requires clinical examination.
Pitfalls and limitations
Do not quantify density without standardised field and scale.
Take-home message
Compare architecture, calibre and density.
