2 Figure. 1. Examples of cartilage compartments
Figure. 1. Examples of cartilage compartments. Weight bearing areas of Medial femoral condyle (yellow) and medial tibial plateau (blue) are divided into anterior (A), central (B), and posterior (C) compartments, and subdivided into superficial and deep layers. Less weight bearing area of posterior medial femur (orange) was divided into superficial and deep layers. Osteoarthritis and Cartilage  , S303-S304DOI: ( /j.joca ) Copyright © Terms and Conditions

3 Figure 2 Comparison of T2 relaxation value of knee joint between control group and pre-operative group. Representative sagittal T2 maps from 22 year-old male control patient (a) and pre-operative MR from 24 year old male patient with anterior cruciate ligament tear (b). T2 RV of weight bearing and less weight bearing areas of medial femoral condyle from anterior cruciate ligament tear patient (b) include green coloured pixels, suggestive of higher T2 RV, compared to orange to yellow coloured pixels in control patient (a).

4 Figure 3 Comparison of T2 relaxation value of knee joint between pre-operative and post-operative MR in patient underwent double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery. Representative sagittal T2 maps of pre-operative MR (a) and post-operative MR six-month after double bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery in 26 year-old male. T2 RV of less weight bearing areas of and superficial layers of weight bearing area of lateral femoral condyle of post-operative MR (b) include green coloured pixels, suggestive of higher T2 RV, compared to orange to yellow coloured pixels of pre-operative MR (a).
