RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To perform region-based development of whole-body MRI through validation of knee region scoring systems in spondyloarthritis (SpA). METHODS: Assessment of knee inflammatory pathologies using 2 systems, OMERACT MRI Whole-body score for Inflammation in Peripheral joints and Entheses (MRI-WIPE) and Knee Inflammation MRI Scoring System (KIMRISS), in 4 iterative multi-reader exercises. RESULTS: In the final exercise, reliability was mostly good for readers with highest agreement in previous exercise. Median pairwise single-measure ICCs for osteitis and synovitis/effusion status/change were 0.71/0.48 (WIPE-osteitis), 0.48/0.77 (WIPE-synovitis/effusion), 0.59/0.91 (KIMRISS-osteitis) and 0.92/0.97 (KIMRISS-synovitis/effusion). SRMs were 0.74 (WIPE-synovitis/effusion) and 0.78 (KIMRISS-synovitis/effusion). CONCLUSION: MRI-WIPE and KIMRISS may both be useful in SpA whole-body evaluation studies.

OBJECTIVE: To validate reliability, correlation and responsiveness of two whole-body MRI scores for the hip/pelvis region in spondyloarthritis. METHODS: Assessment of hip/pelvis inflammation in 4 multi-reader exercises using the OMERACT MRI Whole-body score for Inflammation in Peripheral joints and Entheses (MRI-WIPE) and Hip Inflammation Magnetic Resonance Imaging Scoring System (HIMRISS). RESULTS: In exercises 3-4 (11/20 cases, respectively; 9 readers) reliability was mostly good for the 3 best calibrated readers. Median pairwise single-measure ICC for status were 0.58-0.65 (WIPE-osteitis), 0.10-0.88 (HIMRISS-osteitis) and for status/change 0.38-0.72/0.52-0.60 (WIPE-synovitis/effusion) and 0.68-0.89/0.78-0.85 (HIMRISS-synovitis/effusion). SRM was 1.23 for WIPE-osteitis, while lower for WIPE-synovitis/effusion and HIMRISS. CONCLUSION: MRI-WIPE and HIMRISS may after further validation be useful in future spondyloarthritis trials.
