Quantification of Vascular Burden on Cranial Vessel Wall Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Ophthalmic Complications in Giant Cell Arteritis

ACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
Objective There is a need for measures of disease severity for giant cell arteritis (GCA), which may enable identification of high‐risk subgroups (eg, ophthalmic complications) and individualized approaches to therapy.
