| Core Tip |
Periarticular osteoporosis or osteopenia affecting the hands is an early characteristic sign of bone damage in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) can be considered a reproducible, sensitive and non-invasive method to assess hand bone mineral density (BMD) in early RA. Quantitative measurement of hand bone loss by DXA may be a useful and practical outcome measure in RA and may have predictive value to determine radiographic progression or functional status in patients with early RA. Building up a reference population to obtain objective and accurate T and Z scores for hand BMD is needed.
