Evaluation of infrapatellar fat pad elasticity in knee osteoarthritis using IVIM-DWI-based virtual MR elastography: repeatability and reproducibility analysis
IVIM-DWI-based vMRE demonstrated significant potential as a reliable tool for measuring tissue elasticity in the IPFP, exhibiting higher repeatability for μ<sub>diff_1500</sub> than for μ<sub>diff_800</sub>.
