Is focal narrowing of the antero- inferior aspect/ synovial component of bilateral si joint with similar symmetrical patterns. Subchondral bone irregularitis with erosive bone changes mainly involving iiliac side. The affected marrow demonstrated high signal change son STIR with significant enhancement following contrast, representing osteitis. This means is spondyloarthritis or condesus osteitis?

Thank you for your detailed question. The MRI findings you described-focal narrowing of the antero-inferior aspect/synovial component of the bilateral SI joints with symmetrical patterns, subchondral bone irregularities with erosive changes mainly involving the iliac side, and high signal changes on STIR with significant enhancement following contrast-are indeed suggestive of sacroiliitis. These changes are commonly seen in axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA). However, it is important to review the actual imaging studies to make a definitive diagnosis and understand the full extent of your condition or question. I would be happy to review your images and provide a more specific interpretation. Feel free to reach out if you have any more questions or need assistance with your case.
