Overview

An x-ray may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications of mixed connective tissue disease, which include:

Polyarthritis
- Features characteristic of systemic sclerosis (soft tissue atrophy, calcifications, distal interphalangeal joint erosions), of rheumatoid arthritis (juxta-articular osteoporosis, joint space narrowing, marginal erosions), and of systemic lupus erythematosus (joint deformities without erosions, osteonecrosis) have been described.
Interstitial lung disease
