概要	PURPOSE:Magnetic resonance imaging with T1ρ mapping is used to quantify the amount of glycosaminoglycan in articular cartilage, which reflects early degenerative changes. The purposes of this study were to evaluate early degenerative changes in knees after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction by comparing T1ρ values before and 2 years after surgery and investigate whether surgical factors and clinical outcomes are related to differences in T1ρ values.METHODS:Fifty patients who underwent unilateral primary ACL reconstruction were evaluated using T1ρ mapping before and 2 years after surgery. Three regions of interest (ROIs) were defined in the cartilage associated with the medial (M) and lateral (L) weight-bearing areas of the femoral condyle (FC) (anterior: MFC1 and LFC1, middle: MFC2 and LFC2, and posterior: MFC3 and LFC3). Two ROIs associated with the tibial plateau (T) were defined (anterior: MT1 and LT1, and posterior: MT2 and LT2). T1ρ values within the ROIs were measured before and 2 years after surgery and compared using the paired t test. Correlations between the difference in T1ρ values at these two time points and patient characteristics, presence of a cartilaginous lesion, graft type, and postoperative anteroposterior laxity were also evaluated using Pearson's and Spearman's correlation coefficients.RESULTS:There was a significant increase in T1ρ before versus 2 years after surgery in the MT1, MT2, LFC1, and LT1 areas, and a significant decrease in the LFC3 and LT2 areas.
