Abstract
Objective: To develop a whole-body MRI-scoring system for peripheral arthritis and enthesitis.
Methods: After consensus on definitions/locations of MRI pathologies, four multi-reader exercises were performed. Eighty-three joints were scored 0-3 separately for synovitis and osteitis, thirty-three entheses 0-3 separately for soft tissue inflammation and osteitis.
Results: In the last exercise, reliability was moderate-good for musculoskeletal radiologists and rheumatologists with previously demonstrated good scoring proficiency. Median pairwise single-measure/average-measure ICCs were 0.67/0.80 for status scores and 0.69/0.82 for change scores; kappas ranged 0.35-0.77.
Conclusion: WBMRI scoring of peripheral arthritis and enthesitis is reliable which encourages further testing and refinement in clinical trials.
