To investigate if subjects with an increased risk of developing spondyloarthritis have evidence of bone formation on [18F] Fluoride PET-CT.
The objectives are to determine the accuracy and reliability of sCT compared to conventional CT regarding (1) classification ofshoulder osteoarthritis morphology and (2) planning for the 3D-position of a compound used for shoulderreplacement surgery…
Primary Objective: To establish the effectiveness of lavage with needle arthroscopy in patients with suspected bacterial arthritis of a native joint. The primary outcome measure is the number of additional invasive interventions -needle aspiration,…
To evaluate how the 3D knee joint space distribution in knee OA patients changes under the influence of weight-bearing (upright) and flexion MRI scanning.
The overarching aim of the Axial Involvement in Psoriatic Arthritis (AXIS) study is to systematically evaluate clinical and imaging manifestations indicative of axial involvement in patients with PsA to develop classification criteria and a unified…
HYPOTHESESi. An ldCT-score that includes syndesmophyte formation and facet joint ankylosis will outperform a score that only includes syndesmophytes (CTSS).ii. ldCT has superior *psychometric properties* to CR in the assessment of progression of…
The influence of mobilisation of the sacroiliacal joint and an stabilizing or relaxation exercise program on pain, the function of the pelvic floor, the m. Transversus Abdominus and functional state in patients with pelvic girdle pain.
To evaluate whether we can determine the health status of the joint by measuring biomarker levels using a newly developed assay by the University of Twente based on the multiplex measurement of a panel of relevant biomarkers using Surface Plasmon…
Primary Objective: Validation of T1rho&T2mapping in healthy volunteers and patients with an OCD of the talusSecondary objective: To quantify T1rho & T2 mapping in patients with osteochondrial defects against healthy volunteers with…
Primary Objective: the primary objective of this study is to investigate the accuracy and reliability of coronal curve ultrasound measurements in patients with scoliosis as well as the accuracy and reliability of ultrasound imaging to detect…
The objectives of this study are to investigate the correlation of the handscan measurement with DAS28 and ultrasound measurement of the hands and to investigate the responsiveness to therapy of the handscan device. Also the correlation between the…
The objective of this study is to accurately determine the kinematics of healthy subjects to be able to compare them with patients suffering from patellofemoral instability, by scanning volunteers without knee complaints using 4D dynamic CT imaging…
Optimisation of MRI research protocols including respiratory challenges with the RespirActTM.
The objective of this study is to determine the association between mitochondrial function (activity and protein abundance of electron transport chain complexes I, II, III, IV and V) before TKA and change in KOOS score before versus 6 + 12 months…
The objective is to develop a reliable and concurrent valid KneeGSN that expresses the knee joint (in)stability during gait in KOA patients.
To optimise, test and evaluate new and modified MRI sequences and technology under a test-retest scheme. To validate new sequences in patients in order to reduce MRI protocols in the future.
Primary study objectiveTo validate the performance of the current ASAS classification criteria in a prospective combined cohort of patients presenting to a rheumatologist in North America, Europe, and other parts of the world with undiagnosed…
To ascertain the prevalence of PsA in a tertiary PsO cohort. Secondary objectives will be to ascertain the clinical features of these patients. With these features we want to find clinical, laboratory or genetic markers to predict the presence of…
Primary Objective: To access the geometries and the motions of thumb base joint.Secondary Objective(s): To assess factors (such as gender, hand dominance, and hand size) that might affect the bone geometries and the joint motions.
This study has been transitioned to CTIS with ID 2024-514759-13-01 check the CTIS register for the current data. The primary objective of this proof-of-concept study is to investigate the feasibility of whole body [18F]Fluoride PET-CT scans to…
