Details and patient eligibility

About

The goal of this study is to develop a new way to assess skin thickness in patients with scleroderma (systemic sclerosis). The study will test how well a new imaging method called optical coherence elastography (OCE) compares to the current clinical method used to estimate skin thickness, the modified Rodnan Skin Score (mRSS).
