The axial phenotype of psoriatic arthritis (axPsA) is an excellent example of a major controversy in rheumatology that has become the focus of attention because of the emergence of new therapies with different mechanisms of action for alleviating joint inflammation. In an article earlier this year, Dr. Maksymowych discussed what is currently known about the imaging of axPsA, how imaging may complement clinical assessment, the pitfalls of imaging assessments used in routine evaluation of axPsA and how imaging can be used to help define patients with axPsA.
