Radiologic assessment of osteoarthritis. New techniques.
Of the newer imaging techniques, magnetic resonance imaging holds promise for earlier detection of features of osteoarthritis (OA). Computed tomography, bone scanning, and ultrasound play very limited roles in evaluation of OA. This article illustrates the uses of magnetic resonance imaging in the detection of OA.
