Overview

MRI is more sensitive than x-ray in detecting bony erosions. It can detect synovitis, inflammation of the lining of the joints, and tendon abnormalities.

MRI

• MRI is more sensitive than x-ray in detecting bony erosions.
• It can detect synovitis, inflammation of the lining of the joints, and tendon abnormalities.
• In addition, MRI detects areas of increased fluid (edema) in bone marrow that is a predictor for the development of bony erosions.
