Fig. 6From: Usefulness of using laser-induced photoacoustic measurement and 3.0 Tesla MRI to assess knee cartilage damage: a comparison studyCorrelation between moderate histological degeneration and LIPA. Histological degeneration up to moderate in the Mankin score (Mankin score 7 or below) showed a stronger correlation with LIPA than the assessment of the Mankin score as a whole.
