A semiquantitative color Doppler ultrasound scoring system for evaluation of synovitis in joints of patients with blood-induced arthropathy
BACKGROUND: Intra-articular bleeds in patients with inherited bleeding disorders lead to active synovitis which may progress to a chronic state over time. We explored the diagnostic value of color Doppler ultrasound in detecting synovitis in boys with bleeding disorders. RESULTS: Sixty boys with hem...

description | BACKGROUND: Intra-articular bleeds in patients with inherited bleeding disorders lead to active synovitis which may progress to a chronic state over time. We explored the diagnostic value of color Doppler ultrasound in detecting synovitis in boys with bleeding disorders. RESULTS: Sixty boys with hemophilia and 3 boys with type 3 von Willebrand disease aged 5 to 18 years (median 12.3 years) were imaged by gray-scale and color Doppler ultrasound (US) in three centers (Beijing, China [n = 22], Guangzhou, China [n = 12] and Toronto, Canada [n = 29])) in this observational study. Images were independently reviewed by two radiologists blinded to clinical data using a subjective semi-quantitative scoring system and objective measurements of synovial thickness and vascularity. Inter-reader reliability for using subjective versus objective color Doppler US methods for assessing synovial vascularity was excellent for the subjective method and moderate/lower range of substantial for the objective method. Agreement between degree of vascularity on color Doppler and extent of synovial hypertrophy on gray-scale US was overall poor for Canada data and moderate for China data. Correlations between degree of vascularity on color Doppler and synovial hypertrophy on gray-scale US, and clinical constructs (total and itemized HJHS scores and total Pettersson X-ray scores) for assessment of blood-induced arthropathy were all poor. CONCLUSION: Color Doppler US is a valuable scoring method for evaluating reactive synovitis in joints of subjects with inherited bleeding disorders and holds potential for assessing post-bleed reactive synovitis once further information on its association with timing of the joint bleed becomes available in the literature.
