Abstract
Radiology plays a pivotal role in the diagnosis, management, and monitoring of joint diseases, particularly in the field of rheumatology. Imaging techniques have evolved significantly, offering detailed insights into the structural and functional aspects of joints affected by various rheumatic conditions. This review article discusses the key imaging modalities used in rheumatology, including X-ray, ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). It also highlights the advantages and limitations of each technique, emphasizing their clinical applications in the diagnosis and management of joint diseases.
