Abstract
Considering CT as the reference method, CR showed very low sensitivity. A close correlation with CT erosion volumes supports the OMERACT RAMRIS erosion score as a semiquantitative measure of joint damage in RA. Although the computer-assisted manual segmentation can be beneficial for diagnostic decision in cross-sectional CT examinations of the wrist in RA, this technique will require further evaluation in terms of responsiveness.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
