Morphological analysis of three-dimensional MR images of patellofemoral joints in asymptomatic subjects

Abstract The existing methods for analyzing patellofemoral (PF) osteoarthritis (OA) are limited. Our purpose was to clarify the frequency, localization, and morphological progression of PFOA by observing three-dimensional (3D) magnetic resonance (MR) images from a cohort population. The subjects wer...
