Background  Cartilage thickness is critical important for joint  Lots of researches about knee joint, but little about the ankle joint cartilage thickness.  Biomechanical, physical and chemical properties were different between ankle joint cartilage and knee joint cartilage Materials and Methods  Jan 2011~Aug 2014, 9 9 patients  Inclusion criteria were: Aged between 18 and 60 years; without rheumatoid disease and osteoarthritis; absence of OA, non-athletes, no self- reported chronic pain or significant injury in any ankle.  Exclusion criteria were MRI were used to measure previous ankle surgery, previousinclude the thickness of the ankle ankle operation, deformity; previous joint cartilage. ankle and foot fracture. Results Simple linear regression analysis  Patients whose body height was between 160 and 170 cm were stratified according to gender. Mean body height and mean ankle joint cartilage thickness was significantly greater in males compared to females (P0.01).  To investigate the influence of gender, the difference between mean ankle joint cartilage thickness in males and females of the same mean body height was compared. There was no significant difference in mean ankle joint cartilage thickness in males and females of the same mean body height . Discussion  A positive linear correla
