Webinar Details make perfection… Ultrasound Imaging Biomarkers of Rheumatic Diseases

Details make perfection… Ultrasound Imaging Biomarkers of Rheumatic Diseases

Thursday - March 18th 2021 at 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM CET

COURTESY OF:
Walter GRASSI

Professor of Rheumatology and Director of the Postgraduate School in Rheumatology at the Università Politecnica delle Marche and Chief of the Rheumatology Clinic at the Jesi Medical Center, Ancona, Italy.
The main purpose of this presentation is to focus attention on the potential of ultrasound to show the presence of otherwise undetectable details that can play a key diagnostic role. The sensitivity of sonography is impressive: it is so high that it is possible to recognize minimal lesions such as bone erosions of less than 0.1 mm in diameter. Even if "sensitivity" and "details" are bad words for epidemiologists, as a clinical rheumatologist I like to remember this wonderful statement by Leonardo Da Vinci: "Details make perfection".

Webinar Sonography and rheumatoid arthritis

Sonography and rheumatoid arthritis

Wednesday - April 28th at 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM CEST

COURTESY OF:
Philippe GAUDIN

Professor of Centre Hospitalier Universitaire of Grenoble, France. Chief of Rheumatology Department at CHU (centre hospitalier universitaire) of Grenoble Hôpital Sud, Grenoble, France.
Ultrasonography (US) is a powerful and useful tool for the management of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The first part of this webinar is about, after scanning standardisations, the basic lesions to look for: synovitis, tenosynovitis, erosions, where and when to look for them. Should we use US for diagnosis, disease follow up or/and remission? In the second part, we will consider the literature data to locate the interest of the US examination during the remission. Should we use US to reduce or stop treatment? Are there any data on the risk of relapse? To finish with, we will discuss the French recommendations, which should be published soon, concerning the use of US in RA.

Webinar Ultrasound of enthesitis in inflammatory rheumatic diseases

Ultrasound of enthesitis in inflammatory rheumatic diseases

Thursday - May 20th at 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM CEST

COURTESY OF:
Marina BACKHAUS

Professor of Rheumatology and Imaging Techniques and Chief of the Department of Internal Medicine - Rheumatology and Clinical Immunology at the Park-Klinik Weissensee, Berlin Germany, an academic hospital of the Charité University.
Enthesitis is a common symptom of patients with spondyloarthritis especially with psoriatic arthritis. The clinical detection is most difficult in some cases. An important differential diagnosis is fibromyalgia. This lesson presents the ultrasound definition of enthesitis. Typical examples of enthesitis in inflammatory rheumatic disease were shown.
