Pulmonary ultrasound findings and their relationship with clinical characteristics and myopathy antibodies in a cohort of patients with myositis
Background/Purpose: Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) are a group of diseases characterized by muscular and systemic involvement, with interstitial lung disease (ILD) being a challenging problem.…Abstract Number: 1988 • ACR Convergence 2025
Advancing Vascular Assessment: Combining NIRS-VOT and Ultrasound-Based Brachial Artery Diameter for Improved Diagnostics in Healthy Controls and APS
Background/Purpose: Near-Infrared Spectroscopy combined with Vascular Occlusion Test (NIRS-VOT) is a non-invasive diagnostic method for assessing microvascular function. However, its diagnostic accuracy is often limited…Abstract Number: 1414 • ACR Convergence 2025
Multidimensional Assessment to Differentiate Early Psoriatic Arthritis from Cutaneous Psoriasis
Background/Purpose: Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) develops in ~20-30% of psoriasis patients. However, early PsA diagnosis is challenging due to heterogeneous, subtle symptoms and overlap with psoriasis…Abstract Number: 0477 • ACR Convergence 2025
At the patient level, ultrasound evaluation during the follow up of rheumatoid arthritis does not modify radiographic evolution: a prospective, multicenter, randomized, pragmatic clinical trial (BCD study)
Background/Purpose: Previous studies, including TASER and ARTIC (1,2), failed to demonstrate a significant benefit of ultrasound (US) compared to clinical evaluation in achieving clinical remission…Abstract Number: 2612 • ACR Convergence 2025
Automated, Artificial Intelligence-supported Sonographic Examination of the Hands for the Detection and Quantification of Arthritis and Osteoarthritis in the Hand and Finger Joints in Outpatient Rheumatology Care
Background/Purpose: The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in combination with robotics into clinical diagnostics has the potential to increase precision and efficiency and relieve increasingly…Abstract Number: 1970 • ACR Convergence 2025
Comparison of Optical Imaging with Musculoskeletal Ultrasound in Assessment of PIP Joints of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Patients
Background/Purpose: Lupus arthritis has heterogeneous phenotypes and severity, complicating clinical management and trial endpoints. Advances in musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSK US) and optical imaging have been…Abstract Number: 1385 • ACR Convergence 2025
Characterizing Isolated Dryness Phenotypes in Sjögren’s Syndrome
Background/Purpose: Ocular and oral dryness, occurring in isolation, represent distinct phenotypic subsets within Sjögren’s disease (SjD). However, potential differences in glandular imaging findings and pathophysiological…Abstract Number: 0451 • ACR Convergence 2025
Menopause Status and Disease Activity in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: In women, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) commonly presents around menopause, a timing thought to be influenced by the decline of estrogen and progesterone. However, the…Abstract Number: 2611 • ACR Convergence 2025
Exploring the Role of a Lung Ultrasound Score in the Assessment of Severity of Connective Tissue Disease-Related Interstitial Lung Disease
Background/Purpose: The role of lung ultrasound (LUS) in assessing disease severity of interstitial lung disease (ILD) remains unclear. We employed a semiquantitative scoring system to…Abstract Number: 1968 • ACR Convergence 2025
Relationship between ultrasonographic and elastographic findings of the median nerve and disease activity and hand function in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune joint disease with systemic involvement which can affect the nerves through either compressive pathology due to intra-articular synovitis…Abstract Number: 1358 • ACR Convergence 2025
Real-World Evidence for the Superiority of Subcutaneous Methotrexate in RA: A Comparative Observational Study with Ultrasonographic Assessment
Background/Purpose: Methotrexate (MTX) is a foundational agent in the management of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). While oral MTX is widely prescribed, its subcutaneous (SC) formulation may…Abstract Number: 0443 • ACR Convergence 2025
Association between pan-immune-inflammation and synovitis as assessed by ultrasound in rheumatoid arthritis
Background/Purpose: The pan-immune-inflammation value (PIV) is a novel composite biomarker derived from blood count parameters, reflecting the systemic balance of immune-inflammatory activity. Although it has…
