Guest guest Posted February 23, 2008 Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 The doctor took x-rays of my joints to see if they were damaged from RA since I have alot of pain. My question is: since RA is an auto immune disease is it visible on x- ray? I know with osteo arthritis there may be a build up of calcification in the joints which would show up on x-ray. But RA reduces the cartilage, it does not build up. Thanks for your opinions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
