Abstract

Spinal inflammation is one of the most important features of ankylosing spondylitis (AS), as it determines spinal pain and dysfunction. Currently, spinal inflammation is mainly assessed through patient reported outcomes and it may be subject to individual factors and interferences. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has demonstrated its value in detecting bone oedema and inflammation and it has been included in the new classification criteria of the Assessment of Spondyloarthritis international Society (ASAS).
