This review outlines the imaging approach to sacroiliitis, emphasizing the imaging protocols, diagnostic criteria, limitations and potential mimics of MRI examination. The value of imaging-guided intervention in sacroiliac joint disease is also briefly outlined.
6 sie 2024 · Conclusion A standardised IAP for SIJ MRI for diagnostic ascertainment of sacroiliitis is recommended and should be composed of at least four sequences that include imaging in two planes and optimally visualise inflammation, structural damage and the bone–cartilage interface.

30 cze 2024 · Sacroiliitis (rare plural: sacroiliitides) is an inflammation of one or both sacroiliac (SI) joints. It is a common cause of buttocks or lower back pain and can manifest as a wide range of disease processes. Clinical presentation. Symptoms of sacroiliitis can vary.
6 kwi 2024 · SIJ imaging is crucial for diagnosing and monitoring axial spondyloarthropathies. Imaging tools like radiographs, CT scans, and MRI are valuable, with MRI being especially effective in early inflammatory sacroiliitis detection.
9 mar 2024 · We present a summary of practice recommendations for imaging of sacroiliitis, including several new imaging techniques. Key Points • MRI is the modality of choice for suspected inflammatory sacroiliitis, including a joint-line-specific sequence for optimal evaluation of the bone-cartilage interface to improve detection of erosions.
Conclusion A standardized IAP for MRI of the sacroiliac joints for diagnostic ascertainment of sacroiliitis is recommended and should be comprised of a minimum of 4 sequences, in 2-planes, that will optimally visualize inflammation, structural damage, and the bone-cartilage interface.
