Title: [MR imaging of the subcapital growth plate of the proximal femur]. Author: Kruczyński J, Wierusz-Kozłowska M. Journal: Chir Narzadow Ruchu Ortop Pol; 2000; 65(3):235-40. PubMed ID: 11057009. Abstract: The possibilities of MR imaging of the subcapital growth plate of the proximal femur were evaluated in 36 children with 58 normal hips. The most common presentation of the area of subcapital growth plate on MR images was that of a hypointense band on T1-weighted images and a hyperintense band on sequences using fat saturation. Thinning of the growth plate with age was observed and in the older subjects in this group the growth plate was no longer visible.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
