Osteoarthritis (OA) is a major chronic and global health care problem. Recent technological advances in imaging and postprocessing techniques have enhanced the understanding and characterization of the pathophysiology of this chronic and prevalent disease. Although plain radiograph remains the modality of choice for initial assessment of OA, recent studies have shown that advanced cross-sectional imaging can improve the early detection, grading, structural damage quantification, and risk stratification of OA. This article discusses the currently available evidence regarding both the conventional and novel imaging modalities that can be used for evaluation of patients with OA and its longitudinal assessment.
骨关节炎（OA）是一个主要的慢性全球性医疗保健问题。成像和后处理技术方面的最新技术进展增强了对这种慢性常见疾病病理生理学的理解和特征描述。尽管普通X线摄影仍是OA初始评估的首选方式，但最近的研究表明，先进的横断面成像可以改善OA的早期检测、分级、结构损伤量化和风险分层。本文讨论了目前可用于评估OA患者及其纵向评估的传统和新型成像方式的现有证据。
