Sudoł-Szopińska I, Herregods N, Doria AS, Taljanovic MS, Gietka P, Tzaribachev N, Klauser AS. Advances in Musculoskeletal Imaging in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis. Biomedicines 2022; 10:biomedicines10102417. [PMID: 36289680 PMCID: PMC9598961 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines10102417] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2022] [Revised: 09/11/2022] [Accepted: 09/20/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Over the past decade, imaging of inflammatory arthritis in juvenile arthropathies has significantly advanced due to technological improvements in the imaging modalities and elaboration of imaging recommendations and protocols through systematic international collaboration. This review presents the latest developments in ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the peripheral and axial joints in juvenile idiopathic arthritis. In the field of US, the ultra-wideband and ultra-high-frequency transducers provide outstanding spatial resolution. The more sensitive Doppler options further improve the assessment and quantification of the vascularization of inflamed tissues, and shear wave elastography enables the diagnosis of tissue stiffness. Concerning MRI, substantial progress has been achieved due to technological improvements in combination with the development of semiquantitative scoring systems for the assessment of inflammation and the introduction of new definitions addressing the pediatric population. New solutions, such as superb microflow imaging, shear wave elastography, volume-interpolated breath-hold examination, and MRI-based synthetic computed tomography open new diagnostic possibilities and, at the same time, pose new challenges in terms of clinical applications and the interpretation of findings.

Abstract
The second part of the Guidelines and Recommendations for Musculoskeletal Ultrasound (MSUS), produced under the auspices of EFSUMB, following the same methodology as for Part 1, provides information and recommendations on the use of this imaging modality for joint pathology, pediatric applications, and musculoskeletal ultrasound-guided procedures. Clinical application, practical points, limitations, and artifacts are described and discussed for every joint or procedure. The document is intended to guide clinical users in their daily practice.

Dima RS, Appea P. The Role of Ultrasound in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis: A Narrative Review From an Imaging Perspective. JOURNAL OF DIAGNOSTIC MEDICAL SONOGRAPHY 2020.

Abstract
Objective: Musculoskeletal sonography (MSKS) is increasingly being used in the setting of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). The purpose of this narrative review was to describe the role of sonography in JIA and outline strategies for operators of pediatric MSKS. Methods: A literature review through multiple medical databases was conducted by restricting the search to medical subject headings (MeSH). Peer-reviewed English-language articles from 2007 to 2018 were included, which focused the on common sonographic findings of JIA. Results: Twenty-six articles were selected for inclusion in the study after a complete reading. Many studies aimed to address the validity of sonographic techniques in the assessment of JIA, but few studies discussed the specific sonographic appearances of JIA, scanning pitfalls, and appropriate imaging techniques. Conclusion: MSKS reveals subclinical manifestations of arthropathy, but the true value of detecting subclinical disease is not well understood. MSKS is limited in the evaluation of articular cartilage thinning and bony erosions. Responsiveness of MSKS in JIA remains to be formally assessed with higher quality studies.
