Abstract

BACKGROUND: Hair and scalp disorders present a significant challenge in dermatology due to their clinical diversity and overlapping symptoms, often leading to misdiagnoses. Traditional diagnostic methods rely heavily on clinical expertise and are limited by subjectivity and accessibility, necessitating more advanced and accessible diagnostic tools. Artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning offer a promising solution for more accurate and efficient diagnosis.
