Grayscale and power Doppler musculoskeletal ultrasound images of 13 joints and 5 tendons of the wrist and hand were obtained. Clinical assessment included modified Rodnan skin thickness score, joint count, and Scleroderma Health Assessment Questionnaire.

Skin score correlated with tendinitis grayscale (r = 0.26, p = 0.02). Intra-reader correlation coefficient for musculoskeletal ultrasound was 0.96 for the joints and could not be calculated for tendons because there were too few positive findings.
