A member asked:
Can you tell me about early diagnosis and treatment to ankylosing spondylitis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See details: Early diagnosis depends on a clinical picture consistent with the diagnosis and usually a positive blood test for the HLA-B27 antigen. X rays are often normal early in the disease but an MRI of the sacroiliac joints may show early erosive changes.
