Quantitative T2* Magnetic Resonance Imaging for Iron Detection in Soft Tissue of the Fingers
NMR in Biomedicine, Volume 39, Issue 6, June 2026.T2* MRI was evaluated for detecting iron in soft tissues of the fingers. After visual inspection of dual‐colored maps, multiple regions of interest were placed in the soft tissues at areas that indicated increased susceptibility. Lower T2* values, indicative of iron deposition, were detected in patients with microvasculopathy (right panel) but not in ...

Assessing nailfold microvascular structure with ultra-wideband raster-scan optoacoustic mesoscopy
Photoacoustics, 2018 Nailfold capillaroscopy, based on bright-field microscopy, is widely used to diagnose systemic sclerosis (SSc). However it cannot reveal information about venules and arterioles lying deep under the nailfold, nor can it provide detailed data about ...

Assessing the Health and Functionality of the Microcirculation Using Thermal Imaging
Journal of Biophotonics, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.We review the techniques of thermal imaging for assessing the functional consequences of lowered blood flow in the microcirculation that accompanies many chronic, inflammatory diseases. A comparison is made with laser Doppler/speckle methods. ABSTRACT The microcirculation, composed of vessels below 100 μm in diameter, sustains tissue perfusion and ...

Clinical Associations of Anti‐RNPC3 Autoantibodies in Mixed Connective Tissue Disease
ACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2026.Objective The RNA‐binding region‐containing protein 3 (RNPC3) protein acts as a molecular bridge, promoting U11/U12 RNP complex formation. In previous reports, patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) with anti‐RNPC3 autoantibodies had an increased risk of interstitial lung disease (ILD), severe gastrointestinal (GI) disease, and cancer.

Capillaroscopy: A Valuable Diagnostic Tool [PDF]
Actas Dermo-Sifiliográficas (English Edition), 2019 Capillaroscopy produces in vivo images of skin microcirculation. It is a simple, noninvasive tool for analyzing microvascular abnormalities and, as such, can be used in both adults and children. Capillaroscopy has proven useful in many diseases, but it is of particular value in Raynaud phenomenon and other autoimmune diseases.
