New insight on the subchondral bone and cartilage functional unit: Bone mineral density and cartilage thickness are spatially correlated in non-osteoarthritic femoral condyles

Objective: This study aimed to improve our understanding of the relationship between bone and cartilage by characterizing the morphological coupling between these mechanosensitive tissues exposed to the same mechanical environment within each knee. Specifically, it reanalyzed a prior dataset to test...
