摘要

Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee affects an estimated 20-40% of individuals over the age of 65, and is nearly 10 times more common in the medial compartment than the lateral compartment. Plain radiography measurements using the Kellgren and Lawrence (KL) scale have been the gold standard for diagnosis of knee osteoarthritis. However, for new treatment interventions for medial compartment knee OA such as load modifying footwear, it would be important to know if the disease-related cartilage loss in the medial compartment occurs initially and predominantly in regions that are weight bearing during walking.
