Fig. 5From: Usefulness of using laser-induced photoacoustic measurement and 3.0 Tesla MRI to assess knee cartilage damage: a comparison studyCorrelations between Mankin score and DT imaging, T2 mapping, LIPA, and ICRS grade. Although DT imaging, T2 mapping, and ICRS grade showed strong correlations with Mankin score, LIPA had a weaker correlation than MRI with Mankin score.
