Blood test finds knee osteoarthritis up to 8 years before it appears on X-rays

  • The disease process of osteoarthritis may start before symptoms and X-ray changes, challenging the current belief, according to Dr. Virginia Byers Kraus.
  • Early osteoarthritis can be silent due to the lack of nerves in cartilage, allowing deterioration without pain signals, as indicated by Kraus.
  • A blood test panel could become available in the future for predicting risk of developing osteoarthritis X-ray changes, potentially enabling early intervention strategies like weight loss and exercise.
