A bone x-ray can show signs of arthritis, such as joint space narrowing or bone spurs. However, it may not always be the most sensitive imaging modality for detecting early stages of arthritis, as changes in bone may not be as pronounced in the initial phases. Other imaging techniques like MRI or ultrasound may provide more detail in such cases.
