## Abstract The aim was to use repeat delayed gadoliniumβenhanced magnetic resonance imaging of cartilage (dGEMRIC) to estimate glycosaminoglycan (GAG) content in reparative cartilage after osteochondral autogenous transfer (OAT). The study group comprised 7 knees of 7 patients that were examined t
## Abstract ## Purpose: To demonstrate the feasibility of delayed gadoliniumβenhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of cartilage (dGEMRIC) in the ankle at 3 T and to obtain preliminary data on matrix associated autologous chondrocyte (MACI) repair tissue. ## Materials and Methods: A 3D dual f
