OBJECTIVE: To evaluate if fulfilment of the definition of osteoarthritis (OA) based on the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) clinical criteria corresponds to pathological knee findings evaluated by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). To evaluate if any such criteria is associated with a specific MRI pattern.
METHODS: Forty-six consecutive patients aged 50 years or more referred by their general practitioners (GPs) to a radiology department because of non-traumatic knee pain underwent MRI using a dedicated low field (0.2 T) machine.
RESULTS: MRI results were compared against the ACR criteria for knee OA. Patients with knee pain fulfilling the ACR criteria showed more severe synovial fluid effusion (OR 6.2, 95% CI 2.02 to 19.1), cartilage lesions in the medial area (OR 2.4, 95% CI 1.2 to 5) and higher mean number of osteophytes (OR 2.3, 95% CI 1.1 to 4.5). The association between single criteria and MRI features was more difficult to establish. Nonetheless, crepitus at joint movement was associated with synovial fluid effusion (p=0.02); bone enlargement was more frequent in patients with lesions of the posterior cruciate ligament (p=0.0001); no palpable warmth was associated with cartilage lesions (p=0.02), and morning stiffness shorter than 30 minutes was associated with the surface of bone edema (p=0.02).
CONCLUSIONS: The ACR clinical criteria identify patients showing the most important features of OA. The association between individual clinical ACR criteria and OA pathology depicted by MRI may be difficult to explain on the basis of anatomical changes and needs further evaluation.
