Ultrasound and MRI have taught us a lot about PMR, but it's the power of PET/CT which illustrated the specific pathology of PMR in full color vision.

Dr. B Humphrey #ACR22 #Osteoporosis Guidelines:
in patients under 40 yo, you cannot calculate #FRAX score, assess BMD and in children get also thoracolumbar xrays. Get repeat testing every 1-2 years #ACR22 @rheumnow https://t.co/CgsvzGKYuV

There has been a lot of talk lately about the difference in the way male and female PsA patients experience their disease. Are the differences only cultural or are there important clinical differences in the disease presentation, organ involvement and complications that physicians should be aware of?
