Can sodium MRI be used as a method for mapping of cartilage stiffness?
OBJECTIVE: Sodium concentration is responsible for (at least part of) the stiffness of articular cartilage due to the osmotic pressure it generates. Therefore, we hypothesized that we could use sodium MRI to approximate the stiffness of cartilage to assess early cartilage degeneration. METHODS: Four...
