Abstract

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by synovitis and subsequent joint destruction involving bone and cartilage. Recent therapeutic development have improved outcomes including disease activity and structural progression in RA, and standardized procedures of imaging assessment including modified total Sharp score (mTSS) have contributed largely for the development of therapeutic strategy. In addition, ultrasonography and MRI of joints have been recently emerging as novel imaging methods for RA. Here, we review current imaging assessments of bone and cartilage destruction in RA.
