The importance of ultrasound examination in care of juvenile idiopathic arthritis patients: 9 months follow-up study
The study results indicate the persistence of subclinical inflammation detected by MSUS in a significant proportion of JIA patients, even during clinical remission. Moreover, the findings suggest that conventional measurements of JIA activity may be insufficient for assessing patients in clinical remission.
