Case Report: Diaphragm Ultrasound Reveals Shrinking Lung Syndrome

Mery Deeb, MD, Taro Minami, MD, Michael Stanchina, MD, Elias Jabbour, MD, & Jan Karczewski, MD  |  July 9, 2024

Shrinking lung syndrome (SLS) is a rare cause of dyspnea that has been most commonly described in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but is also found in systemic sclerosis, Sjögren’s disease and rheumatoid arthritis. Shrinking lung syndrome is characterized by a restrictive pattern on lung spirometry, despite normal lung parenchyma, and an elevated diaphragm.1…

Ultrasound Provides Insights into Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor‐Induced Inflammatory Arthritis

Elizabeth Hofheinz, MPH, MEd  |  October 12, 2020

Ultrasound may provide unique insights into the effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors on the human body beyond the immune system. Research suggests synovitis and inflammatory tendon involvement are commonly seen in patients with immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced inflammatory arthritis.

Ultrasound in Rheumatology—Past, Present & Future

Jason Liebowitz, MD, FACR  |  July 15, 2020

For most rheumatologists, the key elements of the physical exam—inspection, palpation, percussion and auscultation—have long been second nature, but a fifth modality has grown in importance with respect to making the correct diagnosis: ultrasound. From evaluating for Doppler signal and additional findings indicative of synovitis to identifying bony erosions, chondrocalcinosis, tophi and other articular and…
