A fast and cheap method of skin assessment in systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an area of extensive research. Established in 1979, the Rodnan skin score is a palpation-based method used among clinicians. This method has some limitations, such as: examiner's skills, subjective results, and no standardization. In the last few years researchers have been exploring ultrasound-based techniques as a possible tool for skin assessment among patients with SSc. The aim of the study is to develop a protocol of elastography-based skin imaging evaluation among patients with SSc.
Review of the literature and own experience.
Proposition of elastography-based skin imaging protocol among patients with SSc.
The authors present a potential protocol of ultrasound-based examination of skin involvement among patients with SSc.
在系统性硬化症(SSc)中,一种快速且廉价的皮肤评估方法是广泛研究的领域。罗德南皮肤评分法于1979年确立,是临床医生使用的一种基于触诊的方法。该方法存在一些局限性,如:检查者的技能、主观结果以及缺乏标准化。在过去几年中,研究人员一直在探索基于超声的技术,将其作为SSc患者皮肤评估的一种可能工具。本研究的目的是制定一项基于弹性成像的SSc患者皮肤成像评估方案。
