In vivo visualization of subclinical osteochondrosis (OC) lesions, characterized by necrosis
of epiphyseal growth cartilage, is necessary to clarify the pathogenesis of this disease …

Purpose To evaluate multiple MRI parameters in a surgical model of osteochondrosis (OC)
in goats. Methods Focal ischemic lesions of two different sizes were induced in the …

Objective Identify and interrupt the vascular supply to portions of the distal femoral articular-
epiphyseal cartilage complex (AECC) in goat kids to induce cartilage necrosis, characteristic …

Osteochondrosis is defined as a focal disturbance in endochondral ossification. The
cartilage superficial to an osteochondrosis lesion can fracture, giving rise to fragments in …

Purpose To use quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) to investigate changes in
cartilage canals in the distal femur of juvenile goats after their surgical transection. Methods …

INTRODUCTION: Osteochondrosis (OC) is an important developmental orthopedic disease
of human and equine patients. The disease is defined as a focal disturbance in enchondral …

Background: Understanding the pathogenesis of osteochondrosis/osteochondritis dissecans
and other developmental orthopaedic diseases that are thought to occur secondary to …

Failure of endochondral ossification due to interruption of the vascular supply to the
epiphyseal cartilage is a critical step in the development of osteochondritis dissecans …

The purpose of the current study was to validate the use of CT for selection against
osteochondrosis in pigs by calculating positive predictive value and comparing it to the …

Focal ischemic chondronecrosis of epiphyseal growth cartilage (EGC) during endochondral
ossification is believed to be a key early event on the pathway to osteochondrosis (OC) in …
