Abstract
Recent advances in the treatment of articular cartilage abnormalities have created a need for an accurate noninvasive imaging method for the evaluation of articular cartilage. Although its role remains undefine d in this regard, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) appears to be the m ost promising method. We review the current status and possible future directions of MRI of articular cartilage.
