MRI Assessment of Articular Cartilage Repair
Articular cartilage lesions in the young population predispose to the development of precocious osteoarthritis. Poor healing of cartilage damaged by trauma or degeneration has been ascribed to avascularity. Cartilage lesions are associated with significant morbidity, including lifestyle restrictions, especially in individuals engaged in sports. The past decade has seen the evolution of a number...

متن کاملInvestigating Parkinson’s disease using rotating frame MRI
Introduction In our previous study performed at 4T on individuals with Parkinson’s Disease (PD) and age-matched controls we have demonstrated that rotating frame relaxation methods employing so-called adiabatic HS1 pulses are capable to separate PD from control subjects based on the values of adiabatic relaxation times in the substantia nigra (SN) [1]. With the goal of investigating the physiol...
متن کاملMRI of articular cartilage at microscopic resolution
This review briefly summarises some of the definitive studies of articular cartilage by microscopic MRI (µMRI) that were conducted with the highest spatial resolutions. The article has four major sections. The first section introduces the cartilage tissue, MRI and µMRI, and the concept of image contrast in MRI. The second section describes the characteristic profiles of three relaxation times (...
