摘要

The type-IV crater is a chondral lesion found in 5-10 percent of injured knees undergoing arthroscopy. The lesion is identified as a serious injury, being found predominantly in young adults, around 30 years of age, having the potential to quickly progress to osteoarthritis due to high load sporting activities typically pursued by this age group. In addition, pain and swelling often accompany larger lesions of this type, and it is recommended that treatment occurs as soon as possible while the lesion is well demarcated.The main limitation, in the quantification of type-IV crater volumes in 'real' human knees is that it is not possible to obtain the true volumes of the craters through a physical experimental measure and manual delineation is known to suffer from user error.We resolve this issue by performing extensive simulations of synthetic craters, of known radii and volume, within the femoral cartilage of 21 healthy knee joints to validate how a novel geometrical heuristic image processing approach can be used to detect type-IV crater lesions and quantify their volumes accurately in real-time from pre-segmented MR images which we compare to the standard manual delineation approach. We show that the mean %error in accuracy of our approach compared to the manual delineation approach for detecting and quantifying synthetic craters of 2-4 mm radii was significantly less (P
