Multimodal In Vivo Imaging of Cutaneous Angiogenesis: A Structured Narrative Review of Dermoscopy, Dynamic OCT, and Line-Field Confocal OCT

Aims

This structured narrative review aimed to synthesize and critically appraise the available human evidence on in vivo assessment of cutaneous angiogenesis using dermoscopy, dynamic optical coherence tomography (D-OCT), and line-field confocal optical coherence tomography (LC-OCT), and to determine whether disease-specific microvascular phenotypes can be defined across selected neoplastic and inflammatory dermatoses. Type of review. Structured narrative review (SNAR), using SANRA as a narrative-review quality framework. The work was not designed as a systematic review of diagnostic accuracy and was not prospectively registered.
