Care and Treatment of Autoimmune Skin Diseases
Treatments
The development of innovative diagnostics and clinical methods provides important information about patient prognosis and helps physicians select the most rational therapy. For example, our patients with systemic sclerosis or dermatomyositis receive blood and skin biopsy analysis to provide diagnostic and prognostic information.
Blood and skin biopsy
A skin biopsy involves removing a sample of skin tissue for examination under the microscope to diagnose a specific condition or to determine or if melanoma is present. A blood biopsy, also known as a blood assay or blood test, may also be useful in diagnosis specific autoimmune or skin-related conditions.
Clinical trials
Stanford researchers also investigate the underlying causes of autoimmune skin conditions to develop safer and more effective therapies. Patients benefit from the knowledge gained from these trials and often receive new medications.
Clinical Trials
Clinical trials are research studies that evaluate a new medical approach, device, drug, or other treatment. As a Stanford Health Care patient, you may have access to the latest, advanced clinical trials.
Open trials refer to studies currently accepting participants. Closed trials are not currently enrolling, but may open in the future.
For Patients
Please confirm the location of your appointment during scheduling as our doctors and staff see patients in multiple locations.
