DOI: 10.1177/1947603520932197
Abstract: OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that superficial cartilage composition (T2) is associated with subsequent incidence or worsening of cartilage damage, and deep T2 with that of bone marrow lesions (BMLs) in knees without radiographic osteoarthritis… read more here.
