Primary Endpoint
Diagnostic performance of T1 Dixon post-Gadolinium and T2 Dixon for active sacroiliitis, according to subchondral edema status

Study Overview

Brief Summary

The investigators hypothesize that the T1 Dixon post-Gadolinium and T2 Dixon sequences will show good diagnostic performances for active sacroiliitis compared to the reference test (Short tau inversion recovery) and clinical-biological criteria, which will allow a better diagnosis of active sacroiliitis

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Diagnostic performance of T1 Dixon post-Gadolinium and T2 Dixon for active sacroiliitis, according to subchondral edema status

Time Frame: Time 0

compared to ASAS criteria incorporating Short tau inversion recovery and clinic-biological elements

Secondary Outcomes

  • Diagnosis of enthesitis from T1 Gadolinium Dixon sequence vs ASAS criteria(Time 0)
  • Diagnosis of synovitis from T2 Dixon and T1 Gadolinium Dixon sequences vs ASAS criteria(Time 0)
  • Diagnosis of chronic sacroiliite (erosion or chondral scler osis, or fatty spinal replacement) by T1 Dixon pre-Gadolinium(Time 0)
  • Diagnosis of chronic sacroiliite (erosion or chondral sclerosis, or fatty spinal replacement) by conventional sequences(Time 0)
