Objective The purpose of this work was to review the current literature on cartilage and
meniscal T2 relaxation time. Methods Electronic searches in PubMed were performed to …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides an effective and noninvasive means by which
to evaluate articular cartilage within the knee. Existing techniques can be utilized to detect …

OBJECTIVE: Meniscus tear is a known risk factor for osteoarthritis (OA). Quantitative
assessment of meniscus degeneration, prior to surface break-down, is important to …

Objective To investigate compositional cartilage changes measured with 3T MRI-based T2
values over 48 months in overweight and obese individuals with different degrees of weight …

OBJECTIVE: Changes in T1ρ and T2 magnetic resonance relaxation times have been
associated with articular cartilage degeneration, but similar relationships for meniscal tissue …

Objectives To evaluate the diagnostic performance of T1, T1ρ, T2, T2*, and UTE-
T2*(ultrashort-echo time-enhanced T2*) mapping in the refined graduation of human …

Purpose To evaluate in vivo T 2 mapping as quantitative, imaging-based biomarker for
meniscal degeneration in humans, by studying the correlation between T 2 relaxation time …

Background Women are at a greater risk for knee osteoarthritis (OA), but reasons for this
greater risk in women are not well understood. It may be possible that differences in …

Background: Although the size of the meniscal allograft is crucial during meniscal
transplantation, the accuracy of meniscal measurement methods is still under debate. A …

Purpose: We aimed to evaluate clinical efficacy and healing effects of conservative
management of degenerative meniscus lesions (DMLs) with a hyaluronic acid (HA) …
