This book provides an introduction to the role of medical imaging in the diagnosis and management of rheumatologic diseases. It reviews basic radiographic findings of common and rare arthropathies while offering a focused and practical discussion of advanced imaging modalities such as CT, ultrasonography, and MRI. The book begins with a discussion on soft tissue changes, bone and bone density, articular surface changes, and bone alignment. Following this is an examination of the use of advanced imaging modalities including CT, ultrasound, and MRI as well as different disease categories such as inflammatory arthritis, degenerative arthritis, infectious arthritis, and crystalline arthropathy. Subsequent chapters include exercises and case examples for imaging hands and wrists, knees, hips, foot and ankle, shoulder, and the spine. Diagnostic Radiology of Rheumatic Diseases is an essential and practical resource for senior medical students, residents, fellows, and physicians in rheumatology, imaging and radiology, immunology, and internal medicine.

Tremendous advances have been made in the field of rheumatology, profoundly changing our understanding of many rheumatologic conditions and creating a new frontier for effective treatments. This book explains the most significant advances in research and care and speculates as to what will be the future of rheumatology over the next several decades, including challenges and lessons learned from past experiences in the field. It highlights landmark research articles and scientific discoveries, discusses how big data, personalized medicine, new biomarkers for disease, and other technological revolutions will shape the future, making it a must-have resource for physicians from all regions of the world. Key Features • Includes concise yet thorough description of the landmark studies and scientific breakthroughs coupled with easy-to-follow organizational structure of chapters that are accessible to readers at different levels of training. • Brings together world-leading experts to provide a fresh perspective to trainees such as residents and fellows-in-training, as well as more senior clinicians and researchers across the field of rheumatology and in specialties such as cardiology, dermatology, pulmonology, nephrology, and neurology, all of whom care for patients with rheumatologic conditions. • Allows the authors to imagine and speculate about the evolution of the field of rheumatology in the coming decades. Examples of such speculative possibilities include use of synovial biopsy to predict response to treatment in rheumatoid arthritis, replacement of renal biopsy with urinary proteomics in diagnosing and classifying lupus nephritis, use of new therapeutics to obviate the need for steroids in the treatment of ANCA-associated vasculitis, and the use of machine learning to evaluate subtle changes in imaging for management of inflammatory arthritis.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and ankylosing spondylitis (AS) are two types of inflammatory rheumatic diseases that are characterized by inflammation of the joints. In RA chronic inflammation leads to pain and joint swelling and, if not treated early and efficiently, is associated with progressive destruction of bone and cartilage. In AS chronic inflammation usually is located primarily in the axial skeleton, but can also manifest in peripheral joints. Just as in RA, lack of timely and efficient treatment can result in (progressive) bone formation and destruction. Historically, clinical assessment, inflammation markers in the blood and conventional radiographs are the cornerstone of both diagnosis and determination of therapeutic efficacy in inflammatory arthritis. In addition, the value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasonography is being explored. However, both techniques have significant downsides in clinical application. Consequently, there is room for improvement to address the clinical needs and fill the gaps of the currently applied imaging tools. Positron emission tomography (PET) is an imaging technique that can visualize the uptake and binding of PET tracers in affected tissues. A PET tracer consists of an agent that binds to a molecular target of interest, coupled to a positron emitting radionuclide, which makes it visible for the PET camera. At present, it is the most sensitive technique for imaging pathophysiological changes at a picomolar level. When combined with an additional anatomical modality, such as computed tomography (CT) or MRI, the molecular data can be fused with anatomical data, providing the ability to visually assess uptake in specified organs and tissues. Enhanced uptake can be assessed both visually and quantitatively. Although PET imaging is an established tool in oncology and neurology, its application in rheumatology is relatively new.

Radiology, the youngest of the major medical sciences, has undergone an extraordinary technical evolution since the discovery of X-rays. It began with the development of the different types of tomography and the adoption of many contrast agents, then proceeded rapidly to serioscopy, subtraction of images, direct enlargement, echography, thermography, and xerography. Today, even before all these innovations have come into common use, another branch of radiologic technology has evolved: computerized (axial) tomography. More than just an innovation, its true dimensions are unfore seeable. Radiology has become in less than a century an indispensable adjunct to the practice of medicine. The development of radiology as a speciality followed its technical advances, which varied greatly from country to country. This rapid development led quickly to subspecialization, even the very early development of radiotherapy and radiodiagnostics as separate entities. However, the entry of radiology into the university has preserved it a single branch of medicine, avoiding the frequent tendency toward auto nomy of the branches of a speciality. Today the fourth generation of radiologists is faced with another deci sion: whether to become technologists subjugated to their machinery, to become sub specialists with a single skill, or to remain doctors. The vast majority of this fourth generation has rejected becoming an accessory to a master technique and rather has specialized according to the hippocratic concept of medicine.
