GARCIA SALINAS, Rodrigo e AGUILAR, Gabriel. Magnetic resonance imaging: its current role in axial spondyloarthritis. Rev. argent. reumatolg. [online]. 2018, vol.29, n.2, pp.43-51. ISSN 0327-4411.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has become a fundamental diagnostic tool in the axial SpA, since it is considered the best technique for the detection of acute lesions at the axial skeletal level. Its use has been the major contribution, in the last years, in the understanding of the course of this disease. This has led, in the new criteria of the Assessment of SpondyloArthritis International Society (ASAS) for the classification of axial SpA, to constitute one of the entry arms to the criteria. In addition, the quantification of inflammation in MRI has become one of the outcome parameters in clinical trials.
