摘要:

关节软骨退化引起疼痛和各种类型的膝盖问题是一个严重的问题,影响所有年龄段的人。退行性关节软骨也被称为骨关节炎的中心标志,骨关节炎是一种复杂的肌肉骨骼疾病,涉及许多促成遗传、体质和生物力学因素。作为软骨退化的一部分,胶原纤维占据的体积减少,细胞(软骨细胞)体积增加。由于高频超声具有分辨单个软骨细胞的能力,因此超声被认为是确定软骨状态的有前途的方法。在目前的工作中,主要目标是比较不同类型的传感器在体外拍摄的图像,以确定它们是否适合软骨成像。

英文摘要:

Cartilage degeneration in joints causing pain and various types of knee problems is a serious problem-affecting people in all ages. Degenerated articular cartilage is also known as a central hallmark of osteoarthritis, which is a complex musculoskeletal disorder involving numerous contributory genetic, constitutional and biomechanical factors. As a part of the cartilage degeneration, the volume occupied by the collagen fibers becomes reduced and the cell (chondrocyte) volume increased. Since high frequency ultrasound has the capability of resolving individual chondrocytes, ultrasound has been suggested as a promising method for determining the cartilage status. In the current work, the main objective has been to compare images taken in vitro with different transducer types, in order to determine their suitability for cartilage imaging.
