There are many bone and joint imaging techniques, and the most commonly used are X-ray and CT, in addition to joint MRI, bone scanning, arthroscopy and other techniques.
X-ray and CT examination, as the most commonly used techniques in the examination of bone and joint diseases, is mainly based on the bone and joint structure to decide, firstly, to consider and exclude whether there are joint symptoms due to the existence of bone structure destruction, such as trauma fracture causing joint pain.
