Use of Imaging in Axial Spondyloarthritis for Diagnosis and Assessment of Disease Remission in the Year 2022.
Medical imaging remains the cornerstone of diagnostics and follow-up of axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) patients. With the lack of specific biomarkers allowing monitoring of disease activity and progression, clinicians refer to imaging modalities for accurate evaluation of the axSpA burden. Technological advances and increasing availability of modern imaging techniques such as MRI have enabled faster diagnosis of the disease, hence dramatically changed the diagnostic delay and improved the prognosis and functional outcomes for axSpA patients.Active sacroiliitis as visualized by MRI has been widely accepted as a diagnostic tool, and definitions of inflammatory and structural lesions within the axial skeleton have been developed. Recently, it has been acknowledged that bone marrow edema, suggestive of sacroiliitis, is a common finding among non-SpA patients, and could be attributed to mechanical loading or accumulate with age in healthy individuals. Therefore, it is crucial to distinguish between true pathological and concealing imaging findings, not only for diagnostic but also for disease remission purposes. New imaging modalities, aimed for in vivo visualization of specific molecular processes, could be employed to cross-validate findings from techniques used in daily clinical practice. This review critically evaluates the use of different imaging modalities for diagnosis and assessment of disease remission in axSpA in the year 2022.
期刊介绍:
This journal aims to review the most important, recently published research in the field of rheumatology. By providing clear, insightful, balanced contributions by international experts, the journal intends to serve all those involved in the care and prevention of rheumatologic conditions.
We accomplish this aim by appointing international authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas such as the many forms of arthritis, osteoporosis and metabolic bone disease, and systemic lupus erythematosus. Section Editors, in turn, select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists. An international Editorial Board reviews the annual table of contents, suggests articles of special interest to their country/region, and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research. Commentaries from well-known figures in the field are also occasionally provided.
