Summary

Ultrasound represents a promising technique for the assessment of joint health in persons with haemophilia (PWH) by non-imaging specialists. The Haemophilia Early Arthropathy Detection with Ultrasound (HEAD-US) programme has been developed with the aim of integrating joint ultrasound in the routine assessment of PWH through the use of a simplified scoring system. The inter-operator reliability of the technique among European haemophilia treaters has been validated and described elsewhere. Further work is needed to assess the real-world impact of ultrasound on disease management and treatment decision-making.
