Plain film radiography is crucial for diagnosing arthritis, confirming clinical findings, and assessing disease severity. This review aids clinicians in interpreting radiographic findings for common arthritides in daily practice.

Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Rheumatology
  • Orthopedics

Background:

  • Plain film radiography remains the primary imaging modality for evaluating arthritic conditions.
  • Radiographs are essential for confirming diagnoses, assessing disease severity, and guiding treatment decisions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a comprehensive overview of radiographic features of common arthritides.
  • To serve as a practical reference for clinicians in evaluating patients with arthritis.

Main Methods:

  • Review of basic radiographic features of common arthritides.
  • Emphasis on the role of plain films in diagnosis and severity assessment.

Main Results:

  • Radiographic evaluation, combined with clinical data, achieves a diagnostic accuracy greater than 90% for most arthritis cases.

  • Plain films are instrumental in confirming diagnoses, especially when other findings are equivocal.
  • Conclusions:

    • Radiography is a cornerstone in the diagnosis and management of arthritis.
    • This review offers a valuable resource for office-based interpretation of arthritis radiographs.
