Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Instruction in US and Canadian Pediatric Rheumatology Fellowship Programs
Background/Purpose: Musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) has value in the evaluation of both pediatric and adult rheumatic diseases. It is taught by at least 94% of adult…Abstract Number: 0159 • ACR Convergence 2021
Structural Damage in Axial Spondyloarthritis: Is There a Preferred Way to Assess Progression over Time?
Background/Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate the performance of the modified Stokes Ankylosing Spondylitis Scoring System (mSASSS) in assessing spinal radiographic damage…Abstract Number: 0391 • ACR Convergence 2021
High Frequency Ultrasound Imaging of Skin Thickness in Patients with Early Diffuse Cutaneous Systemic Sclerosis: An Objective Outcome Measure to Track Change over Time
Background/Purpose: There are currently no validated objective measures of systemic sclerosis (SSc)-related skin thickening and this hampers clinical trials of potential new treatments. The modified…Abstract Number: 1210 • ACR Convergence 2021
Frequency of Anterior Atlanto-Axial Subluxation in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: According to some series, cervical spine is the second most affected region in Rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Cervical involvement was reported in 80% of RA…Abstract Number: 0161 • ACR Convergence 2021
Does 18F-FDG-PET/MRI Add Metabolic Information to Anatomic Image in Childhood-onset Takayasu’s Arteritis Patients? A Multicenter Case Series
Background/Purpose: The disease activity assessment in c-TA is a challenge in clinical practice, especially in patients who are under immunosuppression. Our aim was to perform…Abstract Number: 0394 • ACR Convergence 2021
Hyperspectral Imaging in Systemic Sclerosis-Raynaud Phenomenon
Background/Purpose: Raynaud phenomenon (RP), a microcirculatory, vasospastic disorder, may be primary or secondary to an autoimmune disease [e.g., an early indicator of systemic sclerosis (SSc)].…Abstract Number: 1306 • ACR Convergence 2021
Clinical and Imaging Characteristics of Spondyloarthritis Among Crohn’s Disease Patients
Background/Purpose: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) affects up to 1.3% of the population and is associated with musculoskeletal manifestations including spondyloarthritis (SpA). Axial SpA (axSpA) is…Abstract Number: 0162 • ACR Convergence 2021
Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging for Guiding Decision-making on Treatment Duration: Data from RHAPSODY, a Phase 3 Clinical Trial of Rilonacept in Recurrent Pericarditis
Background/Purpose: The magnitude of pericardial delayed hyperenhancement (DHE) by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) illustrates the severity of inflammation in pericarditis. We hypothesized that patients…Abstract Number: 0452 • ACR Convergence 2021
Total-Body 18F-FDG PET/CT Imaging: A Tool for Diagnosis and Quantifying Inflammatory Burden of Psoriatic Arthritis
Background/Purpose: The underlying pathology in psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is systemic inflammation. The Total Body (TB)-PET/CT with the 18F-FDG radiotracer captures glucose metabolism across the entire…Abstract Number: 1402 • ACR Convergence 2021
Clinical, Laboratory and Imaging Outcomes in Tocilizumab-Treated Patients with Large Vessel-Giant Cell Arteritis According to Early Onset Therapy
Background/Purpose: Tocilizumab (TCZ) has shown efficacy in large vessel vasculitis (LVV)-Giant Cell Arteritis (LVV-GCA) (1-2). 18F-fluodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) is useful to assess…Abstract Number: 0163 • ACR Convergence 2021
Diagnosis of Giant Cell Arteritis in Spain: Data from the ARTESER Registry
Background/Purpose: To standardize research studies different classification systems are used. Currently, the ACR Giant Cell Arteritis (GCA) 19901 classification criteria is probably the most widely…
