Abstrakt:

Axial spondyloarthritis is an inflammatory rheumatic condition, involving primarily joints of the axial skeleton. Presently, magnetic resonance imaging of the sacroiliac joints is preferred imaging modality for the diagnostics of axial spondyloarthritis. The aim of the present PhD thesis was to appraise the application of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging of the sacroiliac joints in the diagnostics of axial spondyloarthritis. In Article No. 1 a comprehensive search of PubMed database was conducted. An up-to-date summary of recommendations regarding the use of diagnostic imaging in the diagnostics of axial spondyloarthritis was created. In Article No. 2 diagnostic efficacy parameters and inter-observer agreement were calculated for DWI and DCE sequence, in relation to STIR sequence. In Article No. 3 the semi-automated algorithm for the detection of bone marrow oedema lesions on STIR sequence was designed. In order to verify the reliability of the algorithm, comparisons of the semi-automated and manual detection results were conducted with the use of Spearman’s coefficient.
