T2 mapping was shown to detect significantly increased T2 in the DIPJ lateral cartilage (higher OARSI grades) compared to the medial cartilage (lower OARSI grades) using a 0.27 T open MR system
Figure 3. Box plots of observer one’s first and second lateral (blue) and medial (orange) T2 measurements and observer two’s first measurements. Boxes show minimum T2, median with interquartile range and maximum T2, along with individual data points.
