Through the ability of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to characterize soft tissue noninvasively, it has become an excellent method for evaluating cartilage. The development of new and faster methods allowed increased resolution and contrast in evaluating chondral structure, with greater diagnostic accuracy. In addition, physiological techniques for cartilage assessment that can detect early changes before the appearance of cracks and erosion have been developed. In this updating article, the various techniques for chondral assessment using knee MRI will be discussed and demonstrated.
通过磁共振成像(MRI)能够无创地对软组织进行特征描述,它已成为评估软骨的一种出色方法。新的更快的方法的发展使得在评估软骨结构时能够提高分辨率和对比度,具有更高的诊断准确性。此外,已经开发出用于软骨评估的生理技术,这些技术能够在出现裂纹和侵蚀之前检测到早期变化。在这篇更新文章中,将讨论并展示使用膝关节MRI进行软骨评估的各种技术。
