Clinical assessment and point of care ultrasonography: How to diagnose haemophilic synovitis

The ability of clinical tools to identify early joint changes is limited. Synovitis is a fundamental finding in understanding haemophilia activity and the response to its therapies; thus, there is a need for sensitive methods to better diagnose subclinical synovitis early.
