SERRANO, Eliana Rebeca; PAPASIDERO, Silvia Beatriz; HERNANDEZ-DIAZ, Cristina e VENTURA-RIOS, Lucio. Tenosynovitis in rheumatoid arthritis, ultrasound and magnetic resonance evaluation. Rev. argent. reumatolg. [online]. 2022, vol.33, n.2, pp.106-116. ISSN 0327-4411. http://dx.doi.org/10.47196/rar.v33i2.607.
Tenosynovitis is a frequent manifestation of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), it is associated with tendon ruptures, functional disability, and erosive processes in the adjacent joints. In recent years, RA clinical management has been supported by different imaging methods such as ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance (MR). These methods are particularly useful tools in clinical practice because they allow the early detection of disease activity and, therefore, prompt treatment. Through different evaluation scales of joint and periarticular damage (such as tendon) they also make possible to assess the state of the disease and the treatment response. The present review aims to describe the scores described for MRI and US to evaluate tenosynovitis in RA patients.
