Men with Axial SpA are more likely than women to experience changes to the bones and fusion, and thus they can be picked up using x-ray. Women are more likely than men to experience inflammation rather than fusion, which is visible on MRI but not on x-ray.
- What are the implications for diagnosis of axial SpA in a woman?
- What do GPs and First Contact MSK practitioners need to consider?
- How do responses to biologics differ?
- What are the implications for management of women with axial SpA?
- What specific issues, such as pregnancy, need to be considered?
- What are the implications of co-morbidities such as uveitis, psoriasis, IBS and increased risk of osteoporosis?
This webinar will consider the above questions including the evidence, research and case studies.
