Abstract
A modified radiographic technique was used to assess dermal atrophy in humans induced by topical steroids. The method proved reliable, and significant atrophy occurred with fluocinolone acetonide, clobetasone butyrate, hydrocortisone 17-butyrate and flurandrenolone, but not with hydrocortisone.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
