High frequency ultrasound of skin involvement in systemic sclerosis - a follow-up study.
(2015) In Arthritis Research and Therapy 17(1).- Abstract
- High-frequency ultrasound offers a potential for objective and quantitative assessment of skin thickness and skin echogenicity in systemic sclerosis (SSc). Few studies have however assessed the longitudinal changes of skin involvement using ultrasound. The aim of the study was to investigate changes in skin thickness in early SSc using high frequency ultrasound during one year of follow-up in comparison to other measurements of skin fibrosis.
