Nail dermoscopy (onychoscopy) findings in the diagnosis of primary onychomycosis: A cross-sectional study

Abstract

Many onychoscopic features are highly specific for different variants of onychomycosis so onychoscopy may serve as an important and quick adjunct to diagnose onychomycosis until other time-consuming investigations, such as culture and periodic acid-Schiff become available. Studies on a larger population will help arrive at a logistic conclusion.
