Prognostication of Three-Month Genicular Artery Embolization Outcomes Using Pre-Procedural MRIs
Pre-GAE knee MRI may offer short-term prognostic utility. Pre-procedural abnormalities in the lateral menisci and cartilage can predict poor response to GAE at three months. A greater degree of structural abnormality (≥ 4 structural abnormalities) was associated with poor response. Temporary embolic agent may be safer than permanent embolic agent.
