Abstract	Scabies is a highly contagious parasitic skin infestation that remains a significant public health concern, particularly in resource-limited settings. Conventional diagnostic methods such as skin scraping are invasive and time-consuming. Dermoscopy has emerged as a rapid, non-invasive diagnostic tool capable of identifying characteristic scabies features, while methylene blue staining may enhance burrow visualization.
