Comparison of Quantitative Imaging of Cartilage for Osteoarthritis: T2, T1rho, dGEMRIC, and Contrast-Enhanced CT
Introduction Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic degenerative disease characterized primarily by the loss of articular cartilage. Although radiography is the primary clinical method of evaluating OA, radiographs lack the ability to directly image soft tissues and hence is limited to the detection of OA only at late stages of disease progression and is relatively insensitive to biochemical cartilag...
متن کاملContrast enhanced imaging of human meniscus using cone beam CT.
OBJECTIVE Meniscal injuries can lead to mechanical overloading of articular cartilage and eventually to knee osteoarthritis. The objective was to evaluate the potential of contrast enhanced computed tomography (CECT) to image contrast agent (CA) diffusion in human menisci with a clinical cone beam CT scanner. DESIGN Isolated human menisci (n = 26) were imaged using magnetic resonance imaging ...
متن کاملLocalization of Articular Cartilage Damage in the Rat Medial Meniscus Tear Model for Osteoarthritis Using Contrast Based Micro-CT Imaging
Based Micro-CT Imaging Thote, T; Willett, N; Lin, A; Moran, S.M +Guldberg, R E +Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta GA [email protected] INTRODUCTION Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common degenerative joint disease in humans. Development and characterization of small animal models of osteoarthritis is important to provide a platform for better understanding OA pathogenesis and...
متن کاملcontrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging in sacroiliitis
conclusion fs t2 w and ce fs t1 w sequences of axial planes were the most useful sequences in determination of active sacroiliitis. therefore, in patients with renal failure or allergy to contrast media, fs t2 wi can be obtained to detect active sacroiliitis. objectives the aim of this retrospective study was to assess the value of different magnetic resonance imaging (mri) sequences in evaluat...
متن کاملA Prospective Study Comparing Functional Imaging (18F-FDG PET) Versus Anatomical Imaging (Contrast Enhanced CT) in Dosimetric Planning for Non-small Cell Lung Cancer.
Objective(s): 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET-CT) is a well-used and established technique for lung cancer staging. Radiation therapy requires accurate target volume delineation, which is difficult in most cases due to coexisting atelectasis. The present study was performed to compare the 18F-FDG PET-CT with contrast enhanced computed tomogr...
