The American Rheumatism Association group the progress of the disease in
four stages:
Stage 1 (the early stages) when it is not possible to see any destructive
effects on an X-ray
Stage 2 (moderate) when X-rays show evidence of osteoporosis and only
slight bone and/or cartilage destruction. Local muscle atrophy may be
evident and joint mobility may be affected.
Stage 3 (severe) - X-ray evidence of cartilage and bone destruction as
well as osteoporosis. Joint deformity and extensive muscle atrophy is
present.
Stage 4 (terminal) Extensive bone and cartilage destruction, substantial
osteoporosis, obvious joint deformation, with fibrous or bony ankylosis.
