Zusammenfassung

Purpose: To evaluate the responsiveness of a combined gray-scale (GS) and power Doppler (PD) US score over one year compared to synovitis sum scores of five joints (US5) in RA patients taking different anti-rheumatic therapies. Material and methods: N = 77 RA patients have been surveyed over one year. The clinically most affected hand was semi-quantitatively (0 – 3) assessed by GSUS and PDUS for synovitis. In detail, radiocarpal, ulnocarpal, midcarpal, MCP/PIP 2 – 5 joints were examined from dorsal and palmar at baseline, and 3, 6 and 12 months after initiation/change of therapy (DMARD/Biologic). The combined sc…
