Abstract:
Case series.It has been shown in rodent and canine models that cartilage composition is significantly altered in response to long-term unloading. To date, however, no in vivo human studies have investigated this topic. The objective of this case series was to determine the influence of unloading and reloading on T1rho and T2 relaxation times of articular cartilage in healthy young joints.Ten patients who required 6 to 8 weeks of non-weight bearing (NWB) for injuries affecting the distal lower ex...     »
