Recent advances in MRI of articular cartilage.
OBJECTIVE
MRI is the most accurate noninvasive method available to diagnose disorders of articular cartilage. Conventional 2D and 3D approaches show changes in cartilage morphology. Faster 3D imaging methods with isotropic resolution can be reformatted into arbitrary planes for improved detection and visualization of pathology. Unique contrast mechanisms allow us to probe cartilage physiology and detect changes in cartilage macromolecules.


CONCLUSIONS
MRI has great promise as a noninvasive comprehensive tool for cartilage evaluation.
