Abstract
This work investigates the capability of a novel Raman arthroscopic needle probe to assess cartilage-tissue-specific biomarkers that are predictive of articular cartilage health during the progression of osteoarthritis. Using ex vivo models of cartilage over a range of degenerative states, we demonstrate that Raman probe-derived biomarkers can predict the composition and material properties of cartilage tissue specimens. This work supports the future use of Raman arthroscopy as an intraarticular clinical platform for ‘molecular assessment’ cartilage to achieve diagnostics of osteoarthritis early in the disease process and assess the efficacy of emerging clinical therapies in restoring cartilage health.
