In this study, we assessed the repeatability and
reproducibility of quantitative MRI measurements of
cartilage morphometry and tissue parameters intra-site
and between sites and manufacturers. Quantitative
measurements of tissue morphometry, T2, and sodium
concentration were repeatable within a given site as
determined by a high concordance correlation
coefficient. Between sites with different manufacturers,
correlation was high for morphologic imaging. Sodium
concentration measurements showed a correctable bias
while use of different acquisition sequences on
different platforms for T2 measurements showed errors
that are not easily correctable.
