Abstract
Thoracic involvement is common in patients with rheumatic diseases, contributing to significant morbidity and mortality. Early detection and prompt treatment may prevent the establishment of irreversible changes, thus improving patients' outcomes. Imaging studies play a vital role in the early detection of chest and chest wall manifestations, especially in patients with subclinical disease. Familiarity with the frequently affected thoracic regions and their presentation on imaging is therefore essential for practicing radiologists to provide an accurate assessment of the disease burden and treatment response. This review summarizes the common and less well-known chest and chest wall imaging features of rheumatic diseases.
期刊介绍：
Seminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology is a review journal that is devoted to musculoskeletal and associated imaging techniques. The journal''s topical issues encompass a broad spectrum of radiological imaging including body MRI imaging, cross sectional radiology, ultrasound and biomechanics. The journal also covers advanced imaging techniques of metabolic bone disease and other areas like the foot and ankle, wrist, spine and other extremities.
The journal''s content is suitable for both the practicing radiologist as well as residents in training.
