Rheumatoid Arthritis

Eligibility

Age

18 Years to 64 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: * Diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis according to ACR/EULAR 2010 criteria or with OsteoArthritis according to ACR 1990 criteria. * Age between 18 and 90 years * * 1 swollen hand joints * Ability to give informed consent
