Quantitative assessment of graft maturation after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using quadriceps tendon: Insights from ultra short echo time T2∗ mapping
Quantitative assessment using MRI-UTE-T2∗ mapping following ACL reconstruction with QT grafts demonstrated that graft maturation progressed more rapidly in the intra-osseous region compared to the intra-articular region.
