Time-Dependent Change in Cartilage Repair Tissue Evaluated by Magnetic Resonance Imaging up to 2 years after Atelocollagen-Assisted Autologous Cartilage Transplantation: Data from the CaTCh Study.

Atelocollagen-assisted ACI improved the MRI-based morphological and qualitative outcomes until 24 months post-surgery, and normal or nearly normal grades were achieved in most lesions by arthroscopic assessment. MRI assessment may be an alternative to arthroscopic assessment.
