Abstract:
The seronegative spondyloarthropathies (ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis, Reiter's syndrome and arthritis associated with chronic inflammatory bowel diseases) are distinguished by inflammatory lesions of the sacroiliac joints, of the spine and/or a peripheral arthritis associated with the absence of rheumatoid factors. The author describes the radiological features of this group of diseases and their differential diagnosis.

01:24X-ray Imaging
German physicist Wilhelm Röntgen (1845–1923) was experimenting with electrical current when he discovered that a mysterious and invisible "ray" would pass through his flesh but leave an outline of his bones on a screen coated with a metal compound. In 1895, Röntgen made the first durable record of the internal parts of a living human: an "X-ray" image (as it came to be called) of his wife’s hand. Scientists worldwide quickly began their own experiments with X-rays, and by 1900, X-ray was widely...

Ultrasonography is an imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize the body's internal structures. It is a non-invasive and safe procedure that does not involve the use of ionizing radiation, making it widely used in various medical fields. Ultrasonography is used to study heart function, blood flow in the neck or extremities, certain conditions such as gallbladder disease, and fetal growth and development.
