无创诊断工具，如毛扫描(R)、反射共聚焦显微镜（RCM）和光学相干断层扫描（OCT），是评估毛干和生长的有效方法。本研究的目的是通过测量脱毛后5天的毛干和毛发生长情况，对这三种医疗程序进行比较评估。通过测量六名女性志愿者小腿上的毛发生长情况，证明了这些技术的应用。用剃须系统去除毛干后，用毛扫描(R)、RCM和OCT法测量毛囊和生长毛发的长度。这三种方法都是脱毛后可靠的毛发测量工具。Trichoscan (R)最适合用于毛发生长测量和毛囊分析中的RCM，而OCT系统可以作为评估毛囊和长度的附加测量。(c) 2012年中国光学仪器工程师学会（SPIE）；(jbo.17.10.101504 DOI: 10.1117/1.)
Noninvasive diagnostic tools, such as Trichoscan (R), reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM), and optical coherence tomography (OCT), are efficient methods of hair shaft and growth evaluation. The aim of this study was to carry out a comparative assessment of these three medical procedures by measuring the hair shaft and hair growth after hair removal for a defined period of five days. The application of these techniques was demonstrated by measuring hair growth on the lower leg of six female volunteers. After removal of the hair shaft with a shaving system, the hair follicle infundibula and the length of the growing hairs were measured with the Trichoscan (R), RCM, and OCT method. All three methods are reliable hair measuring tools after hair removal. Trichoscan (R) is best suited in the implementation of hair growth measurement and RCM in the analysis of hair follicles, whereas the OCT system can be consulted as an additional measurement for the evaluation of the hair follicle and length.
