Joint diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, spondylarthritis, and osteomyelitis affect the joints and surrounding structures, often leading to pain, swelling, and loss of function. Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic inflammatory disease that primarily affects the joints and can lead to permanent damage.
An MRI scan precisely visualizes inflammatory changes in the joints and surrounding tissues. It allows for the early detection of swelling, fluid accumulation, and tissue damage.
