痛风性关节炎的超声研究进展

痛风性关节炎是临床常见疾病,由单钠尿酸盐结晶沉积在软骨、关节和周围软组织引发。超声不仅能用于痛风性关节炎的诊断和疗效评估,还可以引导细针穿刺获得诊断所需的组织样本。介绍痛风性关节炎的实用超声检查方法（六分钟检查法）,以及超声在痛风性关节炎不同时期（无症状高尿酸血症期、急性期、发作间期和慢性期）中的诊断应用。在痛风性关节炎的诊治上,超声比X线、CT和MRI更有效,而且无辐射、检查费用低。

Application and research progress of multidetector computed tomography angiography in the diagnosis of aortic dissection

Gouty arthritis is a common disease. The musculoskeletal manifestations of gout are triggered by the deposition of monosodium urate (MSU) crystals in cartilage, joints, and surrounding soft tissues. Ultrasonography is not only helpful in diagnosing gouty arthritis but also in evaluating the curative effects. It can also be used for needle guidance to obtain tissue samples for diagnosis. This paper introduces the most feasible ultrasound examination for gouty arthritis (Six-Minutes Examination), and the application in diagnosis different phases of gouty arthritis (asymptomatic hyperuricemia, acute, intercritical, chronic gout). Compared with comparison with X-ray, CT, and MRI, US is considered as a more effective, non-radiating, and least expensive imaging technique in diagnosis and management of gouty arthritis.
