POS1323 SACROILIAC JOINT MRI ABNORMALITIES IN JUVENILE SPONDYLOARTHRITIS: AN UPDATE OF DEFINITIONS AND SCORING OF THE OMERACT JUVENILE IDIOPATHIC ARTHRITIS MRI SCORE

Background: Preliminary definitions for SIJ lesions in the OMERACT Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis Magnetic Resonance Imaging score has been reported1. Investigators identified the need to revise the JAMRIS-SIJ item definitions. Objectives: To update the JAMRIS-SIJ definitions and scoring method. Methods: The OMERACT JAMRI working group was convened to discuss the performance of the score in a reliability exercise using 30 patients. Twenty investigators (12 radiologists, 8 rheumatologists) decided which definitions and scoring methods to be revised, retained or added. Results: The revised JAMRI-SIJ is in the Table 1. Conclusion: Revised JAMRIS-SIJ has been developed. Validation steps are underway. References: [1]Otobo TM, et al.
