Brief Summary

Ultrasonography can detect different changes in anterior chest wall (ACW) joints in patients with Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) even before being clinically manifested. Airways ,pleura, lung parenchyma and vascular compartment all may be attacked by RA. This study was aiming at detecting the relation between ultrasonographic changes of asymptomatic ACW joints and pulmonary function tests (PFTs) in patients with RA.
