Joint cartilage thickness measured by ultrasound in juvenile idiopathic arthritis
Purpose Joint cartilage degradation is one of the early outcomes in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). One of the primary goals of rheumatic treatment is to prevent joint destruction. We therefore need sensitive methods to evaluate cartilage thickness. Ultrasonography (US) has shown to be a reliable tool in the assessment of joint cartilage in rheumatic disease. We have previously been able t...
متن کاملUltrasonic measurement of depth-dependent transient behaviors of articular cartilage under compression.
We previously reported an ultrasound method for measuring the depth-dependent equilibrium mechanical properties of articular cartilage using quasi-static compression. The objective of this paper was to introduce our recent development for nondestructively measuring the transient depth-dependent strains of full-thickness articular cartilage specimens prepared from bovine patellae. A 50 MHz focus...

Introduction: Rhinoplasty is one of the most common surgical procedures performed among Iranians. An important issue to be considered by nasal surgeons is anatomical variations between different ethnic groups. Working on Iranians with the existing ethnic variety encourages the need for an analysis of this particular population. Materials and Methods: The present cross-...

متن کاملPReS-FINAL-2344: Radiographic evaluation of joint space width compared to cartilage thickness as assessed by ultrasonography in knees of children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis
Introduction Joint space narrowing (JSN) is a measureable outcome of the tissue degeneration caused by the inflammatory process of the synovium in arthritis. JSN is usually assessed by conventional radiography. Ultrasonographic measurements of joint cartilage thickness in large and small joints have been validated in a study of healthy children and recently, measurements of distal femoral carti...
