Preliminary Study on Grading Diagnosis of Early Knee Osteoarthritis by Shear Wave Elastography.

Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is the most common chronic bone joint disease. The WHO points out that KOA has become the fourth most disabling disease in the world, and the main clinical treatment is prevention. At present, the clinical diagnosis of knee osteoarthritis with deformation is mainly made by X-ray and two-dimensional ultrasound, and the preventive treatment effect is not good.
