- The early disease stage in axial spondylarthritis: results from the German Spondyloarthritis Inception Cohort. (2009, background): “Because AS is a slowly progressing disease as far as radiographic changes are concerned, definite sacroiliitis on plain radiographs appears relatively late, which is one reason for the long diagnostic delay of 5–10 years in AS (10, 11 ).”

These examples underline the need for experience in interpreting MRI of the SI joints and the importance of making a correct diagnosis in order to initiate appropriate treatment.
