Growth cartilage: normal appearance, variants and abnormalities
Magn Reson Imaging Clin N Am.
1998 Aug.
Abstract
The cartilaginous structures in the growing ends of the bone have a complex anatomy. MR imaging allows exquisite depiction of these structures. The normal anatomy and biochemical features of the zones of cartilage are reviewed. Based on an analysis of signal characteristics, it is possible to optimize the use of pulse sequences to study the normal structures and abnormalities of growing bone.
