16 kwi 2023 · This view is useful in visualizing any fractures, sacroiliac joint dislocations or subluxations, and possible inflammation (i.e. sacroiliitis) of the sacrum and/or sacroiliac joints. Due to the shallow obliquity of the sacroiliac joints, the prone position allows the diverging x-ray beam to project through the joint space giving better ...
Radiographic recognition of mild, or even moderate, sacroiliitis is not always clear cut. As a result, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly utilized to enable recognition of sacroiliitis at a much earlier stage than which is possible radiographically.
23 lis 2012 · MRI of the sacroiliac joints has been shown to be superior to radiography in depicting sacroiliitis, and gadolinium-enhanced MRI has been shown to be useful in the early detection of active sacroiliitis [7, 8].
