Background/Purpose: only very scarce data is available regarding the prevalence of spine Xrays abnormalities suggestive of axial Spondyloarthritis (axSpA) in patients with recent onset mechanical…Abstract Number: 2000 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
MRI Contributes to Accurate and Early Diagnosis of Non-Radiographic HLA-B27 Negative Axial Spondyloarthritis
Background/Purpose: According to the ASAS classification criteria for axial spondyloarthritis (SpA), the presence of structure changes of sacroiliac (SI) joints such as sclerosis, bone erosion,…Abstract Number: 1734 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Computer Aided Syndesmophyte Measurement on Spinal Radiographs in Axial Spondyloarthritis Patients
Background/Purpose: Quantifying syndesmophyte (Synd) length and angle in axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) patients (pts) can be a helpful tool in monitoring disease progression. Objective was to…Abstract Number: 566 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting

Comparison Of The Performance Of The BASRI and Msasss In Patients With Early Inflammatory Back Pain From The DESIR Cohort
Background/Purpose: For assessing structural damage in AS on spinal X-rays the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Radiology Index (BASRI) and modified Stoke Ankylosing Spondylitis Spinal Score (mSASSS) scoring systems can…Abstract Number: 1124 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Lumbar Degenerative Changes In The Spondyloartritis Caught Early Cohort
Background/Purpose: The early diagnosis of axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is difficult, however new classification criteria are available, the ASAS axSpA criteria. The SPondyloArthritis Caught Early (SPACE)…Abstract Number: 2436 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Classification Of Axspa Based On Positive Imaging (Radiographs and/or MRI of the Sacroiliac Joints) By Local Rheumatologists Or Radiologists Versus Central Trained Readers In The DESIR-Cohort
Background/Purpose: Sacroiliitis on MRI and X-rays play an important role in the ASAS axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) criteria1. Though, recognition of sacroiliitis on X-rays (X-SI) and…Abstract Number: 1718 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Reading Of The Sacroiliac Joints On Plain Radiographs: Agreement Between Clinical Practice and Trained Central Reading Of The DESIR-Cohort
Background/Purpose: In daily practice, radiologists/rheumatologist judge sacroiliac (SI) joints on X-rays (X-SI). However, reliable identification of radiographic sacroiliitis is difficult. Consequently, large inter- and intra-observer…Abstract Number: 1549 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
