Overview
An x-ray may be helpful in the diagnosis of reactive arthritis. Reactive arthritis primarily involves the lower extremities and an x-ray of hip with sacroiliac joint, knees, ankles and feet may show juxta-articular osteoporosis, soft tissue swelling, bilateral asymmetric distribution uniform joint space loss, and bone proliferation.
X Ray
- An x-ray may be helpful in the diagnosis of reactive arthritis. [1]
- Reactive arthritis primarily involves the lower extremities and an x ray of hip with sacroiliac joint, knees, ankles and feet may show the following findings:[2]
- Soft tissue swelling
- Bilateral asymmetrical distribution
- Juxta-articular osteoporosis
- Uniform joint space loss
- Bone proliferation
