Overview of Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a progressive inflammatory disorder characterized by proliferation of the synovial membrane and persistent uncontrolled inflammation resulting in a chronic destructive polyarthritis. Typically, RA manifests as a symmetric arthritis involving numerous small and large joints. Articular symptoms may be accompanied by systemic inflammatory symptoms such as fatigue, articular stiffness, anorexia, or fever.

How Rheumatoid Arthritis Is Diagnosed
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is challenging to diagnose, especially in the early stage, because the signs and symptoms are similar to many other conditions. Healthcare providers rely on a physical exam, family medical history, several blood tests, and imaging such as X-rays, MRIs, and ultrasound. MRI and ultrasound images can reveal signs of RA at an early stage and guide your treatment by showing the extent of your joint damage.
