| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
CT-osteoabsorptiometry (CT-OAM) was method for assessing the distribution of subchondral mineralization. Relationships between strength and subchondral bone density (SBD) of the human joint are known.
We observed that the area of maximum density of the tibia was located in the medial part in most subjects. Therefore we observed that shortest joint space was located medial sections. We believed our data shows that stress concentration was increased in area of joint space narrowing especially. CT-OAM analysis may elucidate the pathology of foot and ankle disorders.
