Abstract

Abstract

Objective MRI scanning technique was used to measure the thickness of the anterior and posterior angles of the medial and lateral compartments of the knee joint in normal adults, so as to provide technical means and parameters for the design of total knee replacement prosthesis and the optimization of artificial meniscus design. Methods The imaging data of MRI scanning of unilateral knee joint of adult patients in Yunnan Traditional Chinese medicine hospital from January 2020 to June 2022 were randomly selected. 248 cases without knee edema, obvious degeneration of meniscus, meniscus injury and tear in MRI films were taken as samples, including 137 women, 111 men, 18-80 years old, with a median age of 50 years. The sagittal MRI films of knee joint were observed, Three senior clinicians measured the meniscus anterior and posterior angle thickness of the medial compartment of the knee joint and the meniscus anterior and posterior angle thickness of the lateral compartment of the knee joint, and the average of the three measurements was taken as the final measurement result. The measurement results were statistically analyzed by spss27.0 statistical software package. Results The thickness of anterior horn of meniscus in the medial compartment was （3.65 ± 0.93）mm; the thickness of posterior horn of meniscus in the medial compartment was （5.25 ± 1.17）mm; the thickness of anterior horn of meniscus in the lateral compartment was （4.82 ± 1.08）mm; the thickness of posterior horn of lateral in the lateral compartmentwas （6.89 ± 1.03）mm. The t test of two independent samples showed that the thickness of the posterior angle of meniscus in the medial compartment was statistically significant between men and women （P < 0.05）. The anterior and posterior Angle thickness of the meniscus in the medial ventricle of the left and right knee joints was significantly different from that in the lateral ventricle （P < 0.05）. According to Pearson correlation analysis, there was a correlation between the anterior angle thickness of medial interventricular meniscus and the posterior angle thickness of medial interventricular meniscus in both sexes （P < 0.05）. There was a correlation between the thickness of anterior horn of lateral interventricular meniscus and the thickness of posterior horn of lateral interventricular meniscus in both sexes （P < 0.05）. Conclusion In this study, MRI imaging technology was used to reveal the morphological characteristics and changes of meniscus in normal adults through the measurement of meniscus morphology, which is conducive to the design of total knee replacement prosthesis and the optimization of artificial meniscus design, so as to better guide clinical treatment.
