Background/Purpose: Rheumatology is underrepresented in the medical training of students in Germany. [1] Tools and methods are needed to inspire young students for specialist training…Abstract Number: 0750 • ACR Convergence 2020
Nuclei Detection in Rheumatoid Arthritis Synovial Tissue Using Artificial Intelligence
Background/Purpose: Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stained rheumatoid arthritis synovium are routinely used to assess inflammation [1]. In this work, we propose an automated approach using…Abstract Number: 1503 • ACR Convergence 2020
Ultra High‐resolution Ultrasound (UHFUS) of Labial Salivary Glands Might Help to Avoid Unnecessary Lip Biopsy in Patients with Sicca Syndrome
Background/Purpose: Major salivary gland ultrasonography (SGUS) has an established role as a first-line imaging tool in the diagnosis of primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS). Nowadays, however,…Abstract Number: 1557 • ACR Convergence 2020
Lymphatics as a Biomarker of Joint Physiology: Near-Infrared Imaging of Indocyanine Green Identifies Novel Routes of Lymphatic Drainage from Metacarpophalangeal Joints in Healthy Human Hands
Background/Purpose: In our previous work, we discovered that patients with active hand RA have reduced lymphatic drainage of indocyanine green (ICG) from the web spaces…Abstract Number: 0128 • ACR Convergence 2020
Short-Term Monitoring of Denosumab Effect in Breast Cancer Patients Receiving Aromatase Inhibitors Using Radiofrequency Echographic Multi-Spectrometry (REMS) Technology on Femoral Neck
Background/Purpose: The aim of the study was to carry out a short-term monitoring of the effect of aromatase inhibitors (AI) and Denosumab on bone health…Abstract Number: 0759 • ACR Convergence 2020
Presence of Ultrasound Imaging Biomarkers Are Good Predictors of Arthritis Development in a Population at Risk for Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Ultrasound (US) imaging biomarkers in the context of Anti-Citrullinated Protein Antibody (ACPA) autoimmunity might play an important role in the very early detection of…Abstract Number: 1533 • ACR Convergence 2020
Ultrasound Joint Inflammation but Not Disease Activity Score at 28 Joints Is Reflective of the Severity of Joint Damage in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: With increased use of musculoskeletal ultrasound (US) among rheumatologists, it will be necessary to understand what additional clinical information may be derived from US…Abstract Number: 1558 • ACR Convergence 2020
Cinematic Rendering Enables Depiction of Bone Anabolic Effects in Patients Treated with Baricitinib
Background/Purpose: Preclinical studies show that tsDMARDs such as baricitinib may be a therapeutic agent for bone anabolic effects by increasing osteoblast function in inflammatory conditions.[1]…Abstract Number: 0316 • ACR Convergence 2020
High-sensitivity 18F-FDG PET/CT: A Diagnostic Tool for Psoriatic Arthritis
Background/Purpose: To validate high-sensitivity PET/CT as a diagnostic test we have explored the association of total-body and extremity PET/CT measures with the standardized psoriatic arthritis…Abstract Number: 0882 • ACR Convergence 2020
Efficacy and Safety of Secukinumab in Patients with Spondyloarthritis and Enthesitis at the Achilles Tendon: 52-weeks Results from a Randomized, Placebo-controlled Phase 3b Trial
Background/Purpose: Enthesitis is a key feature of all types of spondyloarthritis (SpA) that substantially contributes to the overall burden of disease. Inhibition of the key…
