Overview

There are no echocardiography findings associated with polymyalgia rheumatica. Ultrasound exam is important for the diagnosis of polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR). It can reveal evidence of bursitis, synovitis or tenosynovitis in the affected areas.

Echocardiography 

There are no echocardiography findings associated with polymyalgia rheumatica.

Ultrasound

  • Findings on ultrasound are part of the PMR diagnostic criteria scoring established by the European League Against Rheumatism and the American College of Rheumatology.[1]
  • A study revealed that ultrasound can potentially help identifying patients with high inflammation who are at elevated risk of relapses or recurrences.[3]
