36-year-old female with psoriasis and persistent pain and stiffness in the foot/toes. Evaluate for abnormalities. A marker was placed dorsal to the first metatarsophalangeal joint. Mild osteoarthritis affects the first metatarsophalangeal joint with small osteophytes and subchondral cysts within the first metatarsal head. There is a small amount of fluid within the joint but we see no enhancement to suggest a synovitis. The flexor hallucis longus tendon is unremarkable. The remainder of the visualized tendons are unremarkable. The remaining visualized soft tissue structures are normal. The bone marrow signal intensity is normal.
