Journal ArticleDOI

Relationship between trabecular bone structure and articular cartilage morphology and relaxation times in early OA of the knee joint using parallel MRI at 3 T.

TL;DR: An overall decrease in bone structure parameters and an increase in cartilage parameters (T1rho, T2) were noticed in patients with mild osteoarthritis, suggesting that loss of mineralized bone is associated with cartilage degeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI

In Vivo 3.0-Tesla Magnetic Resonance T1ρ and T2 Relaxation Mapping in Subjects With Intervertebral Disc Degeneration and Clinical Symptoms

TL;DR: It is suggested that T1ρ may be sensitive to early degenerative changes (corroborating previous studies) and clinical symptoms in intervertebral disc degeneration, thus suggesting different sensitivities to tissue composition.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vivo intervertebral disc characterization using magnetic resonance spectroscopy and T1ρ imaging: association with discography and Oswestry Disability Index and Short Form-36 Health Survey.

TL;DR: A relationship between in vivo MRS spectroscopy (water content and PG content), imaging parameters (T1&rgr; and Pfirrmann grade), discography results, and clinical self-assessment is demonstrated, suggesting that MRS-quantified water, PG, and MR T1& rgr; relaxation time may potentially serve as biomarkers of symptomatic IVDD.
