Sanne Boeren

Sanne Boeren is an active Researcher in the Rheumatology department at Erasmus MC, focusing on inflammatory arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis diagnostics. Her work primarily investigates early detection methods, risk factors, and disease progression patterns in arthralgia and rheumatoid arthritis patients.

Dr. Boeren's research interests span inflammatory arthritis mechanisms, rheumatoid arthritis prediction, diagnostic imaging techniques (particularly MRI and ultrasound), and the impact of demographic factors like menopause and obesity on disease development. Her work demonstrates particular expertise in utilizing imaging technologies to detect early inflammation without invasive procedures.

Analysis of her recent publications reveals a strong focus on developing and validating diagnostic protocols for rheumatoid arthritis, with particular attention to non-contrast MRI techniques, ultrasound applications, and identifying risk factors such as reproductive history and obesity. Her research consistently targets early intervention opportunities in the disease continuum from arthralgia to established inflammatory arthritis.

Her work has attracted attention from multiple news outlets and social media platforms, with several publications being picked up by news media and discussed on professional networks. Five of her recent publications have collectively garnered 15 Scopus citations, demonstrating growing impact in the rheumatology field.
