Gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging in shoulders contributes accurate diagnosis and predicting recurrence to patients with polymyalgia rheumatica

We aimed to evaluate whether gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in shoulders can contribute to more accurate diagnosis and prediction of recurrence in patients with polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR).Gadolinium-enhanced MRI and ultrasonography (US) in shoulders were performed in the patients who had bilateral shoulders pain and fulfilled the Bird's Classification Criteria between June 2012 and June 2018.
