Arthritic hand, X-ray C017 / 7171
Arthritic hand. X-ray of the hand and wrist of a 56 year old patient with rheumatoid arthritis. Rheumatoid arthritis is caused by the immune system attacking the bodys own tissues, causing progressive joint and cartilage destruction. As the cartilage is worn away, new bone grows as part of the repair process. This causes stiffness and deformity of the fingers. Treatment is with anti- inflammatory drugs and physiotherapy

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the debilitating effects of rheumatoid arthritis on a 56-year-old patient's hand and wrist. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease where the body's immune system mistakenly attacks its own tissues, leading to progressive joint and cartilage destruction. In this X-ray image, we witness the destructive nature of the disease as new bone growth occurs in response to worn-away cartilage. This reparative process results in stiffness and deformity of the fingers, causing immense discomfort for individuals like this brave female patient. The swollen joints visible in this monochrome radiography highlight the inflammation characteristic of rheumatoid arthritis. The disorder not only affects mobility but also impacts overall health, making it crucial for patients to seek appropriate treatment. Medical intervention for rheumatoid arthritis typically involves anti-inflammatory drugs and physiotherapy sessions aimed at managing pain and improving joint function. However, there is no cure for this degenerative condition that affects millions worldwide. Through this powerful image, we gain insight into the challenges faced by those living with rheumatoid arthritis. It serves as a reminder of both the resilience of patients battling chronic diseases and the ongoing need for research into effective treatments that can alleviate their suffering.
