Design outcomes

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Above mentioned outcomes will be correlated to questionnaires, measuring clinical effectiveness of the procedure (KOOS, VAS, Knee Society Scale).	—

Primary

Measure	Time frame
The measurement of the average T1-value will be performed measuring the distance from the location with the worst T1-signal to the center axis of the upper and lower limb. Further, changes in intensity of T1 signal will be measured to evaluate progression or decrease of cartilage damage.	—
