The association of meniscal body height with knee structural changes in middle-aged and elderly patients with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis

To investigate whether and how meniscal height is associated with osteoarthritis (OA)-related knee structural changes in symptomatic knee OA.We studied 106 patients (61 female, aged 40-73 years) with symptomatic knee OA. X-ray was used for Kellgren-Lawrence score. Meniscal body heights and extrusion were measured on coronal sections of intermediate-weighted MRI sequence. Knee structural changes were assessed using the modified whole-organ...
