Introduction: This study aimed to determine the association between the baseline magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings and clinical outcomes after articular injection of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) for knee osteoarthritis (KOA).

Methods: This retrospective study included 149 patients with varus-type KOA treated with a single intraarticular ASC injection. All patients underwent a MRI evaluation before treatment.

Background: Painful degeneration of the sternoclavicular joint refractory to nonoperative treatment has historically been managed with resection of the degenerative segment of the medial clavicle. Although this has produced good results with improvement in symptoms, recurrent pain necessitating revision surgery is not an infrequently encountered outcome. To reduce the occurrence of recurrent postoperative pain, a novel technique to reconstruct the intra-articular disc at the time of medial clavicle resection was developed.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is heterogeneous and involves structural changes in the whole joint, such as cartilage, meniscus/labrum, ligaments, and tendons, mainly with short T2 relaxation times. Detecting OA before the onset of irreversible changes is crucial for early proactive management and limit growing disease burden. The more recent advanced quantitative imaging techniques and deep learning (DL) algorithms in musculoskeletal imaging have shown great potential for visualizing "pre-OA.
