Abstrakt: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an increasingly important tool for identifying involvement of the sacroiliac joints (SIJ) in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). The key feature for diagnosing active sacroiliitis is bone marrow edema (BME), but other features of active arthritis such as joint space inflammation, inflammation in an erosion cavity, capsulitis and enthesitis can be seen as well. Structural changes may also be seen. Systematic MRI assessment of inflammation and structural damage may aid in monitoring the disease course, choice of therapeutics and evaluating treatment response. In this pictorial essay, we illustrate normal MRI findings and growth-related changes of the SIJ in the pediatric population, as well as the different MRI features of SIJ inflammation. This atlas demonstrates fundamental MRI disease features of active inflammation in a format that can serve as a reference for assessing SIJ arthritis according to the updated preliminary JAMRIS (Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis MRI Score) scoring system proposed by the MRI in JIA working group of Outcome Measures in Rheumatology and Clinical Trials (OMERACT). The atlas is intended to be read in conjunction with its companion Part 2, Structural Lesions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
