Systematic Review of MRI, Ultrasound, and Scintigraphy as Outcome Measures for Structural Pathology in Interventional Therapeutic Studies of Knee Arthritis: Focus on Responsiveness
- Abstract:
- Objective. Validated imaging outcome tools to assess response to therapies in a single joint are required. Our aim was to review the published literature to ascertain the responsiveness of novel imaging techniques as outcome measures in interventional therapeutic studies of knee arthritis.
