There was a significant linear trend (Figure 3), with the forehead A/B ratio decreasing over time ( I r i SP 2 sp = 0.0972, I p i = 0.0005), so later portraits had less evidence of frontal hair loss. Frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA) was first described in 1994 by Kossard who noted a scarring, frontotemporal hair loss pattern in six postmenopausal women.[1] Reports suggest the incidence may be increasing.[2] We examined historical female portraits looking for evidence of FFA. We could not utilize the Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia Severity Index (FFASI), which has proven intraobserver concordance.[9] However, this study also identified a method to screen for possible FFA in patient 2D images using the forehead A/B ratio.
