Abstract

Osteoarthritis (OA) also known as degenerative arthritis, degenerative joint disease and osteoarthrosis, is a group of mechanical abnormalities involving degradation of joints, including articular cartilage and subchondral bone. It is among the most frequent diseases in the population and a common cause of pain and disability in adults. The principal disease hallmarks for assessment of OA are still clinical observation and radiographic aspects. This review highlights the different diagnostic modalities used in OA, with the emphasis on radiographic findings of different joints.
