Figure 3From: Diffusion tensor imaging can detect the early stages of cartilage damage: a comparison studyRelationship between Outerbridge grade and the ADC, FA, and T2. (a) A significant positive correlation was observed between the Outerbridge grade and the ADC (R2 = 0.9184, P < 0.001). (b) The FA (R2 = 0.6616, P < 0.05) was slightly correlated with the Outerbridge score. (c) A significant positive correlation was observed between Outerbridge grade and T2 (R2 = 0.7883, P < 0.001).Back to article page
