Radiology is dependent on an accurate understanding of the pathological process. This review of primary osteoarthritis identifies eight areas in which widely held concepts are either demonstrably false or fall short of proof. In some, the concepts have been disproved by the gradual accumulation of evidence. In others, the error is due to radiological misinterpretation while in a third group, the evidence is not in dispute, but the logical framework used in its assessment is flawed. Awareness of these deficiencies simplifies radiological interpretation and clarifies research objectives.
放射学依赖于对病理过程的准确理解。这篇关于原发性骨关节炎的综述确定了八个领域，在这些领域中，广泛持有的概念要么明显错误，要么缺乏证据支持。在某些情况下，这些概念已被逐渐积累的证据所推翻。在其他情况下，错误是由于放射学解读错误，而在第三组中，证据并无争议，但用于评估的逻辑框架存在缺陷。认识到这些不足有助于简化放射学解读并明确研究目标。
