著者:Khan T. I., Hassan M. M., Kurihara M. and Ide S.題名:Research on Diagnosis of Knee Osteoarthritis Using Acoustic Emission Technique発表情報:Acoustical Science and Technology (International Journal, The Acoustical Society of Japan) 巻: 42 号: 5 ページ: 241-251キーワード:Knee joint, Osteoarthritis, Acoustic emission, Integrity analysis, Clinical validation概要:Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee is a widespread disease caused by the articular cartilage
damage, and its prevalence has become a severe public health problem worldwide, especially in the
ageing society. Although X-ray, MRI, CT, etc. are commonly used to examine knee OA by inserting
external high energy into the body, they do not provide dynamic information on knee joint integrity. In
the present research, the acoustic emission (AE) technique has been applied in healthy individuals as
well as OA patients in order to evaluate the knee integrity in dynamic analysis modes without inserting
any external energy. Four groups of people, young, middle-aged, older, and OA patient have been
participated in the present research, and significant results have been identified. It has been found that
the degeneration of the articular cartilage progresses gradually with the increase of the age. The
angular positions of knee damage are also evaluated by clarifying AE hits. The results are verified
through clinical investigations by an orthopedic surgeon applying X-Ray and MRI techniques. The
results of the present research demonstrate that the AE technique can be considered as a promising tool
for the diagnosis of knee osteoarthritis.
This paper is related to the research outcome of the research supported by KAKENHI(JP17K06266), Japan Patent Number: 6449753.抄録:Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee is a widespread disease caused by the articular cartilage damage, and its prevalence has become a severe public health problem worldwide, especially in the ageing society.
