Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Demonstrate high sensitivity and specificity in detecting early AGA, improving diagnostic accuracy. Reduce the time required for dermatologists to interpret trichoscopic images. Improve the consistency of diagnoses between dermatologists, reducing variability in clinical decision-making. Enable early intervention and treatment of AGA, resulting in better patient outcomes, especially in cases where early signs of hair thinning are subtle. Timepoint: 1 week | — |
