Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this video article is to show the sonographic techniques and findings in evaluating the joints of the hands in patients with possible inflammatory arthritis and to review the sonographic appearance and grading of synovitis. CONCLUSION: This video article shows the value of a targeted approach for musculoskeletal ultrasound of the hand and wrist in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. On completion of this video article, the participant should be able to develop an appropriate diagnostic and therapeutic approach using ultrasound for the treatment of patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
