Knee pain in osteoarthritis: correlation with sonographic findings
Abstract Background Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common joint disorder, with the knee being one of the most frequently involved sites. Knee OA causes pain and stiffness and can lead to considerable disability and consequently to a reduced quality of life (Wideman et al. 2014). The level of radiographic knee OA is, at most, moderately associated with the level of pain. ... Read more

Carpal tunnel syndrome in rheumatoid arthritis patients: evaluation of the depth by ultrasonography
Ultrasound (US) is one of the most widely used tools for diagnosis and evaluation of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). US achievement is comparable to the gold standard electrophysiological studies. Depth of the carpal tunnel is a promising, relatively new sonographic parameter used for assessment of the median nerve. Previously it was evaluated in cadavers, normal individuals and in idiopathic carpal ... Read more

ANKLE EVALUATION IN ACTIVE RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS BY ULTRASOUND: A CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDY
Abstract—Ankle joint evaluation is underestimated in many clinical and sonographic scores used for evaluation and follow-up of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. Agreement on examination parameters is poor among sonographic scores that include the ankle joint. More effort is needed to detect the value of ankle joint examination in RA and assessment of ultrasonographic signs according to frequency, disease duration and ... Read more
