 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 16 Degenerative arthritis of the knee articular cartilage MRI performance [Abstract] Objective: To evaluate the different observers of the degenerative knee cartilage injury MRI diagnosis of consistency of degenerative osteoarthritis of the knee cartilage injury performance characteristics of MRI and clinical significance. Methods: Review of two experienced doctors Analysis of 68 patients with diagnosis of degenerative osteoarthritis of the knee patella, femur, the lateral condyle, trochlea femoral condyle, tibial medial and lateral articular cartilage 408 platform, the MRI images of articular cartilage and the morphological changes of the damage signal classification, the results the Kappa statistical analysis. Results: (1 a Doctor: 408 articular cartilage injury 0 34, I-level 59, II grade 80, III-class 161, Ⅳ grade 74, III level was 39.5%. B Dr : 408 articular cartilage injury 0 30, I-level 68, II grade 72, III-class 160, Ⅳ grade 78, III level was 39.2%. the patella back edge of the femoral condyle and tibial plateau in place more suffer injury. (268 cases are accompanied by 1 or more than 1 different levels of joint disease other related structures. Conclusion: MRI diagnosis of articular cartilage damage good consistency can be more accurately degenerative osteoarthritis of the knee cartilage injury classification, there are other ways unparalleled examination shows the structure of joint disease other related advantages. [Keywords:] Magnetic resonance imaging of knee cartilage injury [Abstract] Objective: To evaluate different observers’ agreement about the diagnosis of degenerative knee articular cartilage injury with MRI and to explore the MRI manifestations and clinical significance of the disease. Methods: MR imaging signals and configuration change of articular cartilages in 408 spots including patella, intercondylus, medial lateral femoral medullar, medial and lateral tibia plateau in 68 patients diagnosed as degenerat
