Vascular, Soft Tissue, and Musculoskeletal Imaging in Systemic Sclerosis.

This review examines the role of various imaging techniques in assessing vascular and musculoskeletal manifestations in Systemic Sclerosis (SSc). Imaging modalities, such as thermography, capillaroscopy, ultrasound, optical coherence tomography, laser speckle contrast analysis, radiography, computed tomography, and MRI, offer valuable insights into SSc-related complications. Findings suggest that these techniques aid in diagnosing conditions like Raynaud phenomenon, digital ulcers, calcinosis, acro-osteolysis, and hand contractures. However, each modality has its advantages and limitations, necessitating a multimodal approach for comprehensive evaluation and accurate diagnosis of SSc-related manifestations.
