Association Between MRI-Detected Osteophytes and Changes in Knee Pain and Structures in Older Adults: A Population Based Cohort Study
Background/Purpose: Osteophyte (OP) formation is one of the clinical features of osteoarthritis (OA), so early detection of OP formation can be of diagnostic value. OP…Abstract Number: 3090 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Inflammation Detected with Modern Sensitive MRI Analysis Demonstrates That Therapeutic Response As Early As One Month Predicts 12-Month Radiographic Progression: Data from a Study Using Tofacitinib and Methotrexate in Early RA
Background/Purpose: Tofacitinib is an oral Janus kinase inhibitor for the treatment of RA. A novel automated quantification method for RA MRI-detected pathology using statistical shape…Abstract Number: 3158 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
What Predicts Absence of Spinal Damage in Patients with Spondyloarthritis after Prolonged Follow up?
Background/Purpose: After 20 years of follow up the majority of patients with aspondyloarthritis (SpA) have developed new bone in the spine although disease may remain…Abstract Number: 3060 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
The Assessment of Disease Activity in Takayasu Arteritis; Six Years Experience from a Single Center
Background/Purpose: The aim of this study is to analyze the activity parameters that affect the physicians global opinion (PGO) in TA. Methods: The data of…Abstract Number: 296 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Different Patterns of Involvement of Thigh Muscles in Dermatomyositis and Polymyositis Using Fat-Suppressed Magnetic Resonance Sequences
Background/Purpose: MRI is often used to evaluate muscle inflammation in myositis. Muscle edema on fat-suppressed (short tau inversion recovery, STIR) sequences is thought to represent…Abstract Number: 3084 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Progression of Lupus Pathology Is Correlative with Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Abnormalities, Diminished Function, and Inflammatory Histopathology in an Animal Model
Background/Purpose: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease causing inflammation throughout the body and cardiovascular involvement is a significant contributor to morbidity and mortality…Abstract Number: 297 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
How Useful Is Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in Monitoring Patients with Myositis?
Background/Purpose: MRI is commonly used to assess muscle inflammation in myositis. Muscle edema on fat-suppressed sequences is thought to reflect active inflammation. However, it is…Abstract Number: 3125 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
White Matter Magnetization Transfer Ratio Histogram Peak Height Helps Identifying Inflammatory Neuropsychiatric Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Background/Purpose: Magnetization transfer ratio (MTR) can be used to detect microstructural cerebral changes in normal-appearing brain tissue of neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus (NPSLE) patients. Our…Abstract Number: 313 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Magnetic Resonance Imaging Outcomes Using an Intra-Articular Injection (SM04690) in the Treatment of Osteoarthritis of the Knee: Interim, Exploratory Analysis of Results from a Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Phase 1 Study
Background/Purpose: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by the destruction of articular cartilage, subchrondral bone alterations and varying degrees of synovitis. Current OA treatments are limited…Abstract Number: 330 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Calf Muscle Adiposity Is Associated with Impaired Physical Performance in Knee OA
Background/Purpose: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative disease associated with significant muscle weakness and disability. Ectopic fat in the thigh, including intramuscular fat (intraMF; fat…Abstract Number: 927 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Ultrasound Assessment of Heel Entheses in Spondyloarthritis Patients: A Comparative Study with Radiography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Background/Purpose: enthesitis is one of the main hallmarks of Spondyloarthritis (SpA), being heel entheses frequently involved. Different imaging modalities, such as conventional radiography (CR), ultrasound…Abstract Number: 1300 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Comparison Between Semiquantitative and Quantitative Methods for the Assessment of Knee Synovitis Using Non-Enhanced and Gadolinium-Enhanced MRI
Background/Purpose: There is evidence that the presence of synovitis in knee osteoarthritis (OA) is clinically relevant since it is associated with pain and structural…Abstract Number: 1301 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Pain Central Sensitization Assessed By Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis
Background/Purpose: An important aspect in chronic pain is central sensitization (CS) which involves increased responsiveness of the central neurons and it is clinically expressed like…
