Description

Highlights: • WB-MRI is still not routinely applied for musculoskeletal inflammatory diseases. • Myositis is the most frequent WB-MRI indication in adults. • CRMO is the most common WB-MRI indication in children. • WB-MRI protocols' optimization is needed. To investigate the current role of WB-MRI for rheumatic inflammatory diseases in clinical practice using a survey addressed to musculoskeletal radiologists.
