Systematized water content calculation in cartilage using T1-mapping MR estimations: design and validation of a mathematical model
BACKGROUND: Up to 80 % of cartilage is water; the rest is collagen fibers and proteoglycans. Magnetic resonance (MR) T1-weighted measurements can be employed to calculate the water content of a tissue using T1 mapping. In this study, a method that translates T1 values into water content data was tes...
