23 lis 2022 · First, the use of T1 Dixon and T2 Dixon imaging as a part of the armamentarium of morphological MRI sequences allows the ability to detect changes in signal intensity, especially at subchondral bone that suggest active or chronic sacroiliitis.
17 sie 2024 · Sacroiliitis, a common presenting feature of axial spondyloarthritis (axial SpA), manifests as bone marrow edema, erosions, sclerosis, and joint space narrowing. Septic sacroiliitis and repetitive stress injuries in sports can also cause changes resembling inflammatory sacroiliitis.
9 mar 2024 · We present a summary of updated evidence-based practice recommendations for imaging of sacroiliitis. MRI remains the imaging modality of choice for patients with suspected sacroiliitis, using at least four sequences: coronal oblique T1-weighted and fluid-sensitive sequences, a perpendicular axial oblique sequence, and a sequence for optimal ...
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.
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.
23 mar 2023 · The MRI sacroiliac joint protocol encompasses a set of MRI sequences for the routine assessment of sacroiliac joints. Note: This article aims to frame a general concept of an MRI protocol for the assessment of the sacroiliac joint.
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.
