A study of the subchondral bone in human knee osteoarthritis using Raman spectroscopy
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common, debilitating disease, involving degeneration of cartilage and bone in synovial joints. Subtle changes in the molecular structure of subchondral bone matrix occur and may precede gross morphological changes in the osteoarthritic joint. In this thesis, the analytical t...
