Razionale scientifico

Cutaneous ultrasound is an increasingly valuable, non-invasive diagnostic tool in dermatology, offering real-time visualization of skin structures and improving clinical decision-making. This congress is designed to provide a comprehensive overview of both the theoretical foundations and practical applications of skin ultrasound in everyday dermatological practice. The program will cover key inflammatory and chronic conditions such as psoriasis and atopic dermatitis, highlighting how ultrasound can support disease assessment, monitoring, and treatment response. Special attention will also be given to alopecia and nail disorders, where imaging techniques are gaining importance in diagnosis and follow-up. In addition, the congress will explore the role of ultrasound in the evaluation of cutaneous tumors, aiding in early detection and pre-surgical planning. Emerging applications in hidradenitis suppurativa will be discussed, emphasizing ultrasound's ability to assess disease severity and guide therapeutic strategies. A dedicated section will focus on aesthetic medicine, where ultrasound is becoming essential for procedural safety, complication management, and treatment optimization. The course will combine lectures with hands-on sessions, ensuring participants gain both theoretical knowledge and practical skills. This integrated approach aims to enhance clinicians' confidence in using ultrasound as a routine tool in dermatology.
