| normal knee mri images: Engineering the Knee Meniscus Kyriacos Athanasiou, Johannah Sanchez-Adams, 2022-05-31 The knee meniscus was once thought to be a vestigial tissue, but is now known to be instrumental in imparting stability, shock absorption, load transmission, and stress distribution within the knee joint. Unfortunately, most damage to the meniscus cannot be effectively healed by the body. Meniscus tissue engineering offers a possible solution to this problem by striving to create replacement tissue that may be implanted into a defect site. With a strong focus on structure-function relationships, this book details the essential anatomical, biochemical, and mechanical aspects of this versatile tissue and reviews current meniscus tissue engineering strategies and repair techniques. We have written this text such that undergraduate students, graduate students, and researchers will find it useful as a first foray into tissue engineering, a cohesive study of the meniscus, or a reference for meniscus engineering specifications.

| normal knee mri images: MRI of Short- and Ultrashort-T2 Tissues Jiang Du, Graeme M. Bydder, 2024-02-21 This book comprehensively covers ultrashort echo time (UTE), zero echo time (ZTE), and other magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) acquisition techniques for imaging of short and ultrashort-T2 tissues. MRI uses a large magnet and radio waves to generate images of tissues in the body. The MRI signal is characterized by two time constants, spin-lattice relaxation time (T1) which describes how fast the longitudinal magnetization recovers to its initial value after tipping to the transverse plane, and spin-spin relaxation time (T2) which describes how fast the transverse magnetization decays. Conventional MRI techniques have been developed to image and quantify tissues with relatively long T2s. However, the body also contains many tissues and tissue components such as cortical bone, menisci, ligaments, tendons, the osteochondral junction, calcified tissues, lung parenchyma, iron containing tissues, and myelin, which have short or ultrashort-T2s. These tissues are “invisible” with conventional MRI, and their MR and tissue properties are not measurable. UTE and ZTE type sequences resolve these challenges and make these tissues visible and quantifiable. This book first introduces the basic physics of conventional MRI as well as UTE and ZTE type MRI, including radiofrequency excitation, data acquisition, and image reconstruction. A series of contrast mechanisms are then introduced and these provide high resolution, high contrast imaging of short and ultrashort-T2 tissues. A series of quantitative UTE imaging techniques are described for measurement of MR tissue properties (proton density, T1, T2, T2*, T1p,magnetization transfer, susceptibility, perfusion and diffusion). Finally, clinical applications in the musculoskeletal, neurological, pulmonary and cardiovascular systems are described. This is an ideal guide for physicists and radiologists interested in learning more about the use of UTE and ZTE type techniques for MRI of short and ultrashort-T2 tissues. |

| normal knee mri images: The Patella Giles R. Scuderi, 2012-12-06 The problems of the patellofemoral joint remain a challenge to the orthopaedic surgeon. In spite of many articles in scientific journals, an outstanding monograph, and several excellent textbook chapters, the patella is still an enigma in many respects. The etiology of patellar pain is controversial, and there is no completely satisfying explanation for its cause or its relationship to chondromalacia. Curiously, neither the widespread use of arthroscopy nor the advent of newer diagnostic tests such as CT scanning and magnetic resonance imaging have cast much light. Without a better understanding of why patellar disorders occur it is not surprising that there is no consensus on how to fix them. Arthros copy has contributed little except to the patient's psyche. The currently most popular surgical treatment for recurrent dislocation of the patella was first described 50 years ago. One concrete advance, albeit a small one, is a better understanding of the role of anatomical abnormalities and patellofemoral dysplasia in patellar instabilities.

Uniquely written from a practical point of view, each case leads you through a radiology expert’s thought process in analyzing the classic signs with considerations of common misinterpretations and imaging pitfalls. The cases then highlight clinical presentation, relevant pathology, anatomy, physiology, and pertinent imaging features of common disease processes. Key information is distilled into succinct, bulleted points with detailed illustrations and images. This book is an ideal reference and review for practicing radiologists, as well as trainees preparing for licensing examinations. |
| normal knee mri images: Advances in Total Knee Arthroplasty Shuichi Matsuda, 2024-12-03 This book describes in full detail the surgical principles and technology of Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA), providing evidence-based data on the biomechanics of the knee joint and biomaterials in arthroplasty. Starting the chapters with the history and anatomy, the book expands its focus on important issues such as implant designs of articular geometry and ligament substitution. It describes the thorough procedures of surgery from planning, operation, discussion on how to improve the range of motion, postoperative rehabilitation and also patient satisfaction. In chapters describing the surgical procedures, and approaches, step-by-step surgical techniques are shown to manage various severe deformities. Also, the clinical relevance of surgical techniques including soft tissue balancing and alignment of the components and computer-simulated studies are of importance to highlight. Advances in Total Knee Arthroplasty invite authors who are surgeons who have extensive experience in severely deformed joints. This book is collaborated with the Japanese Replacement Arthroplasty Society (JSRA), and it is an informative material for collecting academic insights for arthroplasty surgeons and orthopaedic residents. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence. Subsequently, human revisions were made, mainly in terms of content. Subsequently, stylistic revisions were made by a specialized copy editor. |
