Imaging represents a cornerstone for diagnosing and monitoring rhaumatic diseases. In the last years with the availability of highly effective therapies, demand for the technical performance of imaging has increased exponentially, leading to a rapid development of new technologies. Despite these advances conventional radiography and bone scintigraphy continues to provide enormous diagnostic and prognostic help. This chapiter focuses on the roles of CR and BS in rheumatological clinical practice, taking into account their performance in comparison with newer imaging techniques.

Abstract
Imaging represents a cornerstone for diagnosing and monitoring rhaumatic diseases. In the last years with the availability of highly effective therapies, demand for the technical performance of imaging has increased exponentially, leading to a rapid development of new technologies. Despite these advances conventional radiography and bone scintigraphy continues to provide enormous diagnostic and prognostic help. This chapiter focuses on the roles of CR and BS in rheumatological clinical practice, taking into account their performance in comparison with newer imaging techniques.File in questo prodotto:
