Learn about the underlying causes and pathophysiological mechanisms driving this transition through expert insights from Prof. Maurizio Cutolo, who discusses the fundamental processes involved in the progression from benign to secondary Raynaud's phenomenon. Discover the diagnostic importance of nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC) as Prof. Vanessa Smith demonstrates how this technique can detect the transition and emphasizes the critical need for regular NVC examinations for both healthcare professionals and patients. Gain valuable knowledge from two leading experts in rheumatology and microcirculation research, with Prof. Cutolo bringing extensive experience as former EULAR President and current Deputy-Chair of ERN ReCONNET, and Prof. Smith contributing her expertise as Head of Clinics at Ghent University Hospital and chair of the EULAR study group on Microcirculation in Rheumatic diseases. Understand the clinical implications for early detection and management of patients at risk of developing secondary Raynaud's phenomenon and associated connective tissue disorders through this educational presentation moderated by Prof. Gerd Burmester from Charité University Hospital.
