UTE MRI enables direct evaluation of osteochondral
junction of the knee. This study compared UTE MR
morphology and histopathologic changes of the
osteochondral junction, including duplication of
tidemark and vascular invasion. While the occurrence of
tidemark duplication was similar between UTE-normal and
abnormal samples, vascular invasion was significantly
greater in UTE-abnormal samples. Further investigation
is warranted to fully understand relationship between
osteochondral changes and UTE MR morphology.
