Semiquantitative MRI-based scoring of joint pathology is a powerful tool in osteoarthritis (OA) research, which provides valuable information on the natural history of the disease and can be used in outcome measures. Herein, the authors discuss approaches to semiquantitative MRI-based scoring of OA features and review the scoring systems currently available for whole-joint and feature-specific assessment of knee, hand, hip, spine and shoulder OA.
