Abstract:Background Bone marrow lesions (BMLs) in knee osteoarthritis (OA) have been assessed histopathologically and by dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI); however, a direct comparison of the results has not been reported. Purpose To evaluate and compare the findings by DCE-MRI and histopathology of subchondral BMLs in knee OA. Material and Methods In total, 19 patients with medial tibiofemoral knee OA undergoing total knee arthroplasty were analyzed. Preoperative MRI, including a DCE seque… Show more
