The seronegative spondyloarthropathies (ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis, Reiter's syndrome and arthritis associated with chronic inflammatory bowel diseases) are distinguished by inflammatory lesions of the sacroiliac joints, of the spine and/or a peripheral arthritis associated with the absence of rheumatoid factors. The author describes the radiological features of this group of diseases and their differential diagnosis.

D013167	Spondylitis, Ankylosing	A chronic inflammatory condition affecting the axial joints, such as the SACROILIAC JOINT and other intervertebral or costovertebral joints. It occurs predominantly in young males and is characterized by pain and stiffness of joints (ANKYLOSIS) with inflammation at tendon insertions.

D015535	Arthritis, Psoriatic	A type of inflammatory arthritis associated with PSORIASIS, often involving the axial joints and the peripheral terminal interphalangeal joints. It is characterized by the presence of HLA-B27-associated SPONDYLARTHROPATHY, and the absence of rheumatoid factor.

D016918	Arthritis, Reactive	An aseptic, inflammatory arthritis developing secondary to a primary extra-articular infection, most typically of the GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT or UROGENITAL SYSTEM. The initiating trigger pathogens are usually SHIGELLA; SALMONELLA; YERSINIA; CAMPYLOBACTER; or CHLAMYDIA TRACHOMATIS. Reactive arthritis is strongly associated with HLA-B27 ANTIGEN.
