RElevance of UltraSonography for Assessing Salivary Gland Involvement in Systemic Sclerosis (SSc)

NCT04001556 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 75

Last updated 2022-04-05

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

As fibrosis of salivary glands is supposed to be the main mechanism involved in Systemic sclerosis (SSc)-associated sicca syndrome, Ultrasonography , biopsy and measuring gland elasticity (by ARFI (Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse)) in SSc patients could also constitute a relevant method to assess the potential alterations of echostructure of major salivary glands and the fibrosis of Salivary Glands in this disease.
