MRI Sacroiliac Joint

Do you suffer from pain in the lower back, possibly with pain radiating into the pelvis? Can you no longer bend your trunk so well? Wear and tear, incorrect loading or inflammation of the sacroiliac joint can cause this pain. The sacroiliac joint (SIJ) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at ARISTRA helps you to find the exact cause of the complaints.

Das Iliosakralgelenk (ISG) besteht aus zwei Gelenken (links und rechts), welche die Verbindung zwischen dem Kreuzbein (Os sakrum) und dem Darmbein (Os ilium) bilden und dadurch die Wirbelsäule mit dem Becken verbinden. Schmerzen oder Blockaden im Iliosakralgelenk können vielfältige Ursachen haben. Zum Beispiel eine Entzündung des Gelenks, einen Gelenkverschleiß (Arthrose), eine Fehlbelastung (Sportler*innen) oder eine Störung der Gelenkstellung. Die Schmerzen können lokal auftreten, in das Becken oder das Gesäß, aber auch in die Ober- und Unterschenkel ausstrahlen.

Die Magnetresonanztomografie (MRT) wird zur Beurteilung des Iliosakralgelenkes und der umgebenden Weichteile (Muskulatur, Sehnen, Bänder, Nerven, Schleimbeutel etc.) verwendet. Die MRT-Untersuchung erfolgt in der Regel in Rückenlage und dauert ungefähr 20 Minuten.

Die MRT-Untersuchungen des Iliosakralgelenk bei ARISTRA werden in Zusammenarbeit mit international anerkannten Experten und Expertinnen für die muskuloskelettale (MSK) Bildgebung fortlaufend weiterentwickelt. So können die Aufnahmen vor Ort mit modernster Aufnahmetechnik und nach neuestem Stand der Wissenschaft angefertigt werden. Damit Sie als Patient*in nicht länger im Dunkeln tappen und schnell mit der richtigen Therapie beginnen können.
