OBJECTIVE: To develop a reference image atlas for the Outcome Measures in Rheumatology whole-body MRI scoring system for inflammation in peripheral joints and entheses (OMERACT MRI-WIPE) of the knee region. METHODS: Image examples of each pathology, location and grade, were collected and discussed at web-based, interactive meetings within the OMERACT MRI in Arthritis Working Group. Subsequently, reference images were selected by consensus. RESULTS: Reference images for each grade, pathology and location are depicted, along with definitions, reader rules and recommended MRI-sequences. CONCLUSION: The atlas guides scoring whole-body MRIs for inflammation in joints and entheses of the knee region according to MRI-WIPE methodology in clinical trials and cohorts.
