Reason: eval for sacroiliitis, inflammatory back pain There is no evidence of fracture or malalignment. Tiny osteophyte along the right SI joint but no fluid or enhancement within the SI joint to indicate sacroiliitis. There is benign-appearing cortically based lesion in the proximal right femur, which is incompletely imaged on this study, but of doubtful clinical significance and likely correlates with lucent lesion seen on CT from 7/20/2010. Otherwise bone marrow signal intensity is normal.There is small amount of fluid in the bilateral hip joints, which is normal. We see no synovitis. The muscles are within normal limits.Enlarged prostate is noted.
Minimal osteoarthritis of the right SI joint, but no evidence of sacroiliitis. Other findings as above.
