Summary

Spondyloarthritis is a chronic rheumatic disease that requires prolonged radiographic follow-up. This repetitive exposure to ionizing radiation puts at risk the radiosensitive organs exposed in the field of irradiation. A new low-dose imaging system has emerged. This technique, called EOS, offers the advantage of lower irradiation associated with high images quality. Our goal through this work was to evaluate the reliability of the EOS imaging system compared to conventional radiography in the evaluation of the structural damage of SpA.
