Abstract: Purpose: Skin pigmentation poses challenges for physicians to diagnose skin pathologies. This results in patient and doctor delays, misdiagnoses, and underestimations of disease severity. Such health disparities are evident in underrepresented minorities, highlighting a pressing need for universally applicable, non-invasive, and objective methods for early detection of skin pathologies. In this study, a rodent Vascularized Composite Allotransplantation (VCA) model is used to assess the detection of rejection in several pigmentation models.
