An important component of modern dermatology, diagnostic imaging is a powerful tool for dermatologic diagnosis and management. Diagnostic imaging generally refers to non-invasive imaging modalities such as X-rays, CT scans, and Ultrasounds; however, it may also encompass specialized techniques such as confocal microscopy or dermoscopy. Diagnostic imaging can help diagnose a vast array of skin conditions and is routinely used for detecting skin cancer and other suspicious lesions. X-rays are commonly used for diagnosing skeletal conditions and are also effective for diagnosing and managing certain skin conditions, such as abscesses, foreign bodies, and calcified cystic lesions. CT scans can be used to detect skin cancer and other soft tissue lesions, including inflammatory and neoplastic conditions. Historically, CT scans were typically the imaging modality of choice for immunocompromised patients, as these individuals are at a greater risk of developing larger neoplastic lesions. Ultrasound imaging is mainly used in dermatology to understand deeper layers of the skin. Doppler ultrasound can also help differentiate between malignant and benign tumors. More recently, advances in technology have allowed for the development of newer imaging techniques such as confocal microscopy and dermoscopy. These special imaging modalities are used for the detection of melanomas, as well as for the observation and assessment of biopsy or surgical specimens. Overall, diagnostic imaging has proven to be a valuable asset to the field of dermatology, providing practitioners with a reliable method for diagnosis and monitoring of skin conditions.
