摘要: Background: The current study aimed to determine whether the acoustic properties of living human cartilage during arthroscopy differ between damage from trauma and that pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS). Methods: Nine patients were evaluated with ultrasound arthroscopy. As a quantitative index quality, percentage maximal magnitude (maximal measurement area divided by intact cartilage; %MM) was selected. After evaluation, points into two groups on basis etiologic findings (group T: group P: PVNS) analyzed for presence significant differences in analysis. Results: In findings, %MM values ranged 34.4% 92.3%. According differences, mean 81.0% T 39.3% P, significantly higher than P (p < 0.01). Conclusions: This show...
