Genetic contribution to cartilage volume in women: a classical twin study

27 Jun 2003

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: A classical twin study was performed to assess the relative contribution of genetic and environmental factors to cartilage volume. METHODS: The subjects were 136 adult female twins: 31 monozygotic and 37 dizygotic twin pairs. The subjects had a T2-weighted fat-saturated sagittal gradient echo MRI performed of their right knee. Femoral, tibial and patella cartilage volumes were measured using 3D Slicer,...
