摘要
Alterations of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) relaxation time and intensity can be helpful in the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) lesions like synovial infiltration, local inflammation and exudation (2, 8, 9, 11, 12). Fast low angle shot magnetic resonance imaging (FLASH-MRI) is a rapid method showing anatomy and inflammatory pathology of the examined joint comparable to late spin echo T2 images. The following study presents our results of FLASH-MRI wrist examinations of 15 patients suffering from RA according the ARA criteria and 10 healthy volunteers compared to T1 and T2 weighted MR-images and conventional X-rays. © 1990 Informa UK Ltd All rights reserved: reproduction in whole or part not permitted.
