ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange From Baseline Hair Growth Assessed by Macrophotographic Technique (Hair Count) in the Vertex at 6 Months.Baseline and 6 months
The Macrophotographic hair count method marks a 1-inch diameter circular area at the anterior leading edge of the vertex thinning area and then photographed. The photographs are enlarged and converted into dot maps and the dot maps are converted into total hair counts by means of personal computer-based scanners and imaging software.
SecondaryChange From Baseline Hair Growth Assessed by Macrophotographic Technique (Hair Count) in the Vertex at 3 Months.Baseline and Month 3
The Macrophotographic hair count method marks a 1-inch diameter circular area at the anterior leading edge of the vertex thinning area and then photographed. The photographs are enlarged and converted into dot maps and the dot maps are converted into total hair counts by means of personal computer-based scanners and imaging software.
