Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 306469 0
Assess the suitability of the VISIA Deluxe Imaging System to measure signs of photo damage/photo-aging in patients undergoing treatment with 5-fluroruracil for actinic/solar damage to the scalp/face.
This is done by comparing statistical significance testing of quantitative scoring provided by the VISIA, compared to clinical examination of participants skin, e.g. assessing surface scale and keratin, and presence of dermoscopic characteristics e.g. rosettes and strawberry pattern.
