Figure 1: Two representative T2 texture color maps of the medial tibia from a subject with (A) and without (B) previous knee injury. The subject with a previous knee injury has an elevated entropy, contrast and variance, demonstrating that their cartilage composition is more heterogeneous than the subject without a previous injury.
