Purpose: Identify chronic shoulder MRI findings in patients with known shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA).
Materials And Methods: Two fellowship-trained musculoskeletal radiologists retrospectively reviewed the MRI of nine patients with clinically established SIRVA. MRI was performed at least 4 weeks after vaccination and included intravenous contrast-enhanced sequences. MRI was reviewed for the presence of erosions, tendonitis, capsulitis, synovitis, bone marrow oedema, joint effusion, bursitis, cartilage defects, rotator cuff lesions, and lymphadenopathy. The number and location of focal lesions were recorded.
Results: Erosions of the greater tuberosity were present in 8/9 (89%), tendonitis of the infraspinatus muscle tendon in 7/9 (78%), capsulitis, synovitis, and bone marrow oedema in 5/9 (56%) cases, respectively. Effusion was found in three, and subdeltoid bursitis, rotator cuff lesions as well as cartilage defects in one patient, respectively. None of our included subjects showed axillary lymphadenopathy.
Conclusion: In this case series, greater humeral tuberosity erosions, infraspinatus muscle tendonitis, capsulitis, synovitis, and bone marrow oedema were common MRI findings in chronic SIRVA.

Hip joint rice body bursitis combined with hip dysplasia and pelvic fracture: a case report.

Article Synopsis
- Rice body formation is a rare inflammatory response often associated with conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and is typically diagnosed using MRI.
- A unique case involved a 44-year-old woman with bursitis in her hip joint, who also had hip dysplasia and a pelvic fracture, leading to successful surgical intervention.
- This case is noteworthy because rice body bursitis in the hip joint is uncommon, and there are no previous reports of such a case alongside hip dysplasia and pelvic fracture.

Article Synopsis
- * ACPA-negative patients generally have more swollen joints, but the prevalence of swollen metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joints and walking disabilities is similar across both groups, while ACPA-positive patients show greater prevalence of inflamed tissues.
- * Different types of inflammation are associated with specific symptoms: in ACPA-positive patients, intermetatarsal bursitis relates to MTP joint issues, while in ACPA-negative patients, synovitis is more

Article Synopsis
- The text talks about how MRI is used to help doctors find out if someone has a disease called axial spondyloarthritis (AxSpA), especially looking at differences between men and women.!
- It explains that MRI can detect early signs of this disease, like swelling in the bones, and lists important procedures that need to be followed when doing the MRI.!
- The article also mentions that different factors, like being pregnant or having back pain, can make it harder to diagnose, so doctors need to look at all the information together to make the right decision.!

Article Synopsis
- Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) is a rare inflammatory disorder marked by symptoms like fevers, skin rashes, arthritis, and high ferritin levels, but its cause is unknown.
- Detecting AOSD early is challenging due to its nonspecific symptoms and lack of biomarkers, making diagnosis difficult.
- A study involving musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSKUS) on 11 patients revealed various inflammatory conditions such as tenosynovitis and bursitis, highlighting the diverse joint-related manifestations of AOSD.
