  1. ROI region of interest, SD standard deviation; p-value, level of significance – one way ANOVA with Bonferroni corrections (p-value less than 0.01 for significance). The control MC represents the medial femoral condyle in the non-affected knee, the non-injured MC represents the values in the medial femoral condyle in the knee in which the lateral condyle had a cartilage lesion, and the injured medial MC is the condyle where the cartilage lesion is located
