The Natural Course of Radiographic Progression in Ankylosing Spondylitis — Evidence for Major Individual Variations in a Large Proportion of Patients
Journal of Rheumatology, 05/15/09

Baraliakos X et al. - Radiographic progression in AS is rather variable and many patients show high rates of progression.

Predicting radiographic progression remains difficult; only the prevalence of syndesmophytes at baseline is predictive of future damage.
