title: Ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging in early rheumatoid arthritis: recent advances.
abstract: Efficient methods for diagnosis, monitoring, and prognostication are essential in early rheumatoid arthritis. Data on the value of ultrasonography and MRI are accumulating rapidly, fueling their increasing use in early rheumatoid arthritis. This review focuses on recent advances in the clinical applications of these imaging modalities.
