SSF from Scalp

SSF (Superficial Scraping for Fungi) from the scalp is a diagnostic test used to detect fungal infections on the scalp. The procedure involves scraping the affected area to collect a sample, which is then sent to a laboratory for culturing. Common fungal infections on the scalp include tinea capitis (scalp ringworm), which is typically caused by dermatophytes such as Trichophyton or Microsporum species. The cultured sample allows the fungi to grow, and sensitivity testing may be performed to identify the most effective antifungal treatment. Results typically take a few days to a week, depending on the fungal growth.
