This study investigates the local changes in femoral bone marrow in a longitudinal MRI dataset of mountain ultra-marathon runners acquired during the Tor des Géants 2014 based on the MRI quantitative metrics with a rigorous statistical analysis procedure. The results highlight the different characteristics of different quantitative metrics that provides multiple insights into the data and open various perspectives for further analysis.
