Zusammenfassung
Zielsetzung: Optical imaging is an alternative to MRI in imaging suspected joint involvement in PA and Art. We investigated whether dynamic indocyanin green (ICG) imaging can provide additional information concerning the distinction between both in clinically affected and unaffected joints. Material und Methodik: Image-time series of the hands of 9 patients (Art: n = 5, PA: n = 4, mean age 56,2a, 3 male) were examined by an expert clinician and underwent optical imaging (Xiralite X4, Mivenion, Berlin, Germany) after injection of ICG (Pulsion, Munich, Germany). Images were assessed using an in-house software. ROI…
