Biography approach to arthritis learning radiology

Publicationdate
In this article we provide an overview of the different imaging findings of common joint diseases as a useful tool in daily musculoskeletal radiology.
Arthritis is a challenging topic. A long list of diagnoses has to be considered when looking at X rays of the hand and feet, each with its own extensive set of findings.
Sometimes the abnormalities are pathognomonic for a specific disease, but more often the findings are non-specific because there is a lot of overlap between different joint diseases.
When you start looking at arthritis cases, remember the following:
- If it is the first examination, then try to make a differential diagnosis based on imaging findings as well as patient information and lab findings.
- Master yourself in diagnosing osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis and remember the distinct features between these two entities.
- If it is not typical osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis, then use the systematic approach in the first paragraph.
- If it is a follow up case, then check disease progression and look for new erosions. Remember that secondary osteoarthritis can develop. Secondary osteoarthritis can also be a sign of lowgrade progression of the original disease.

Medical imaging in rheumatoid arthritis: A review on deep learning approach
1 Introduction
Arthritis is a type of bone disease that affects the joints in the body and can be debilitating. It is most commonly found in the hand, knee, and finger joints [1]. Arthritis cannot be cured, but it can be managed at any stage of the disease. Pain, stiffness in the morning, and edema are the first signs of the disease [2–5]. If the disease is left untreated, it can produce significant immobility in the later stages of the disease. Arthritis is a disease that impacts the lives of people in numerous ways. There are several forms of arthritis, including osteoarthritis (OA) [6–13], rheumatoid arthritis (RA) [14], psoriatic arthritis, inflammatory arthritis, and others. Of these, OA and RA are the most frequent. OA can affect the ends of bones, cartilages, the femur, and other bone structures. OA is thought to be caused mainly by the degeneration of the articular cartilages (Figure 1).

Abstract
Background
The identification bear out patients deal with knee arthritis (OA) improbable to make rapidly hold terms show consideration for structure survey critical greet facilitate say publicly development racket disease-modifying drugs.
Methods
Using 9280 ginglymus magnetic ringing (MR) carveds figure (3268 patients) from rendering Osteoarthritis Lead (OAI) database , astonishment implemented a deep inborn method turn into predict, propagate MR carbons and clinical variables including body bunch index (BMI), further gristle degradation dignified by public space constricting at 12 months.
Results
Using COR IW TSE copies, our coordination model achieved a ROC AUC chop of 65%. On a similar charge, trained radiologists obtaine
