To investigate the ability of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) adiabatic relaxation times in the rotating frame (adiabatic T
MR images of 24 subjects (age range: 50-67 years, 12 male), including 12 patients with mild osteoarthritis (OA) (Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) = 1, 2) and 12 asymptomatic volunteers, were acquired using a 3 T clinical MRI system. Morphological assessment was performed using semiquantitative MRI OA Knee Score (MOAKS). Adiabatic T
MOAKS assessment of patients and volunteers indicated the presence of meniscal and cartilage lesions in both groups. For the combined cohort group, prolonged AdT
