  • Title: [Magnetic resonance Imaging in the diagnosis of hemophilic lesions of joints].
    Author: Briukhanov AV, Fedorov VV, Mikhal'kov DF.
    Journal: Vestn Rentgenol Radiol; 1998; (5):25-9. PubMed ID: 9987940.
    Abstract:
    A complex clinical, X-ray, and magnetic resonance tomographic study of 327 joints was made in 114 patients with different forms of hemophilic arthropathy. The diagnostic potentialities of MRI were defined and the MRI symptoms of hemophilic arthropathy, including degeneration of the articular cartilage, meniscus, ligaments, proliferation of the synovial membrane, fibrosis, blood accumulation, and hemosiderosis were revealed. Comparative analysis of the X-ray and MRI imaging findings of the joints at different stages of hemophilic arthropathy has shown that MRI has advantages in diagnosing acute and chronic hemarthrosis, moderate hemophilic osteoarthrosis as it can reveal abnormal processes in the X-ray negative structures of joints.
