Active inflammation and structural change in early active axial spondyloarthritis as detected by whole-body MRI

Objective To evaluate active inflammatory lesions (AIL) and structural changes (SC) in patients with active non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (nr-axSpA) compared with patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) on whole-body MRI (wb-MRI). Method 75 patients with active disease and a symptom dur...
