[Imaging of cartilage. Current status and prospects].
This work describes the composition, organisation, metabolism, biomechanical and physiologic properties of normal cartilage. The initial involution process, of biochemical nature, preceding by far the morphological changes is described as well as the degenerative, inflammatory and traumatic pathogenesis. The modern cartilage imaging techniques are described with emphasis on MRI.
