Wonderful lecture, ladies and gentlemen! Please, is it necessary to use an x-ray and / or CT scan in order to confirm spondyloarthritis? Or an MRI 3 Tesla or 5 Tesla machines on their own will be enough to expose and confirm, together with your wealth of experience and knowledge in radiology, the correct diagnosis? Well done for your amazing work 👏 Thank you!

No CT or X-ray is needed on a routine basis. If MRI is available, use it. In some circumstances, however, CT reveals additional information about the bony structures. Those are sometimes difficult to analyze exacly by MRI, as MRI depicts bone only indirectly.
