Abstract		Accurate assessment of disease activity and joint damage in rheumatic diseases is essential. The sensitivity is improved by using the power Doppler ultrasound technique. It seems that power Doppler imaging is promising for quantifying synovitis in inflammatory diseases. It could be useful in longitudinal studies, particularly in assessing the treatment of rheumatic diseases with disease-modifying anti-inflammatory drugs.
