About this trial
This project intends to explore and validate the utility of new MRI pulse sequence, 3D DL oZTEo, in the detection of osseous erosions of the hand in patients with inflammatory arthritis. The detection of osseous structural changes, such as erosive disease, is routinely assessed in patients with rheumatic conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, as it alters clinical management, and in some cases assists in diagnosis. Currently, this is most often assessed with radiography and conventional MRI.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Adult patients ≥18 years of age
Hand radiographs performed within the past 3-6 months with imaging results available for analysis
Hand radiographs confirm the presence of bony erosions
Scheduled for a hand MRI as part of their routine clinical care at Mayo Clinic Rochester
Disqualifiers
None
Trial design
Single group
Treatments tested in this trial
oZTEo
DeviceAn FDA approved MRI pulse sequence, oZTEo, will be added to a standard of care MRI examination. The oZTEo pulse sequence will be anonymized and sent to GE Healthcare for the application of a deep learning algorithm, 3D DL.
