Tongue and Face Photos to Understand Psoriasis Types
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This study takes photos of your tongue and face to see if certain patterns are linked to a specific type of psoriasis (called blood stasis type in traditional Chinese medicine). It compares people with and without psoriasis to find these visual clues.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 to 65 years old and can agree to join the study.
- You either have psoriasis (with a known TCM syndrome type: blood stasis, blood heat, or blood dryness) OR you do not have psoriasis (as a healthy volunteer).
- You must be able to provide clear photos of your tongue and face (no makeup on your face or coating on your tongue that hides the natural features).
- If you have psoriasis, your doctor must have already confirmed the diagnosis and your TCM syndrome type.
