Patients presenting with new onset of inflammatory joint symptoms may or may not go on to develop rheumatoid arthritis (RA). These investigators found that bone edema on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) could help identify a subset destined to progress to RA, though overall MRI was surprisingly nonspecific.
