The diagnosis of scabies is mainly clinical, however the high variability in presentation could make it through. Besides dermoscopy, different non-invasive imaging techniques have been used to assist in scabies diagnosis: 400x magnification, Line-field Confocal Optical Coherence Tomography (LC-OCT), Reflectance Confocal Microscopy (RCM) and High-Frequency Ultrasound (HFUS) could be useful for the diagnosis of various diseases such as benign tumors, malignant tumors and infectious diseases of all types (viral, bacterial, and parasitic). On the other hand, all these techniques are strictly operator and device-dependent.
