Download or read book Imaging Strategies for Quantitative Whole joint Assessment of Structure and Function Related to Knee Osteoarthritis written by Lauren Elizabeth Watkins and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative disease of the joints, but treatment options have remained limited largely due to an inability to detect and monitor OA in its earliest stages. Medical imaging is a valuable tool to non-invasively evaluate changes in bone, soft tissues like cartilage, and the synovium in OA onset and progression. However, there is a need for improved methods that can not only detect structural and compositional changes in these tissues, but also changes in joint function early in the course of disease. This work develops and progresses the application of medical imaging tools to assess whole joint health in early OA. First, I focus on a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique called gagCEST which aims to image glycosaminoglycan depletion, thought to be the earliest degenerative cartilage changes in OA, with high specificity. However, technical challenges have limited its translational potential at clinical field strengths like 3 Tesla. Here, I make improvements to the gagCEST technique to enable rapid, 3D imaging of the whole knee with improved dynamic range and good repeatability and apply it to study cartilage in a healthy cohort and a cohort with mild to moderate OA. While MRI is a valuable tool to probe structural changes in soft tissues and bone, imaging of bone function remains a challenge with MRI. Combining MRI with [18F]sodium fluoride positron emission tomography (PET) imaging allows for simultaneous assessment of structure and function. I advance the application of PET-MR imaging in OA by comparing quantitative measures of bone vascularization and mineralization in healthy and OA knees and examining spatial relationships between altered bone metabolism and degenerative changes in bone, cartilage, and the synovium. I further applied hybrid PET-MR imaging to study knee joint function by quantifying the short-term response of bone and cartilage to exercise. Results suggest that this technique has strong potential to detect early joint dysfunction after loading. Overall, this work represents a shift toward whole-joint imaging to assess spatial relationships between structure and function of multiple joint tissues.
