Semin Musculoskelet Radiol 2024; 28: 078-091 DOI: 10.1055/s-0043-1776430The importance and impact of imaging biomarkers has been increasing over the past few decades. We review the relevant clinical and imaging terminology needed to understand the clinical and research applications of body composition. Imaging biomarkers of bone, muscle, and fat tissues obtained with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and ultrasonography are described.

Bone Biomarkers Based on Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Semin Musculoskelet Radiol 2024; 28: 062-077 DOI: 10.1055/s-0043-1776431Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly used to evaluate the microstructural and compositional properties of bone. MRI-based biomarkers can characterize all major compartments of bone: organic, water, fat, and mineral components. However, with a short apparent spin-spin relaxation time (T2*), bone is invisible to conventional MRI sequences that use long echo times. To address this shortcoming, ultrashort echo time MRI sequences have been developed to provide direct imaging of bone and establish a set of MRI-based biomarkers sensitive to the st...

Radiomics in Musculoskeletal Tumors
Semin Musculoskelet Radiol 2024; 28: 049-061 DOI: 10.1055/s-0043-1776428Sarcomas are heterogeneous rare tumors predominantly affecting the musculoskeletal (MSK) system. Due to significant variations in their natural history and variable response to conventional treatments, the discovery of novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers to guide therapeutic decision-making is an active and ongoing field of research. As new cellular, molecular, and metabolic biomarkers continue to be discovered, quantitative radiologic imaging is becoming increasingly important in sarcoma management. Radiomics offers the potential for discoverin...

Biomarkers of Cartilage Composition
Semin Musculoskelet Radiol 2024; 28: 026-038 DOI: 10.1055/s-0043-1776429Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has significantly advanced the understanding of osteoarthritis (OA) because it enables visualization of noncalcified tissues. Cartilage is avascular and nurtured by diffusion, so it has a very low turnover and limited capabilities of repair. Consequently, prevention of structural and detection of premorphological damage is key in maintaining cartilage health. The integrity of cartilage composition and ultrastructure determines its mechanical properties but is not accessible to morphological imaging. Therefore, various t...

Imaging Biomarkers of Osteoarthritis
This article discusses the role and potential of different imaging biomarkers in OA research. We review the current role of radiography, as well as advances in quantitative three-dimensional morphological cartilage assessment and semiquantitative whole-organ assessment of OA. Although magnetic resonance imaging has evolved as the leading imaging method in OA research, recent developments in computed tomography are also discussed briefly. Finally, we address the experience from the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health Biomarker Consortium biomarker qualification study and the future role of artificial intelligen...

Value of Edema-like Marrow Signal Intensity in Diagnosis of Joint Pain: Radiologists' Perspective
Semin Musculoskelet Radiol 2023; 27: 649-654 DOI: 10.1055/s-0043-1775740Musculoskeletal pain is a significant contributor to disability. The mechanism and target of the treatment should be optimized by imaging, but currently no accepted gold standard exists to image pain. In addition to end-organ pathology, other mediators also contribute to nociception, such as angiogenesis, axonal extension, immunologic modulation, and central sensitization. Recent research indicates that local inflammation is a significant contributor to pain in the extremities; therefore, we focus here on edema-like marrow signal intensity (ELMSI). We ...

Diffusion Tensor Imaging of Peripheral Nerves: Current Status and New Developments
Semin Musculoskelet Radiol 2023; 27: 641-648 DOI: 10.1055/s-0043-1775742Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is an emerging technique for peripheral nerve imaging that can provide information about the microstructural organization and connectivity of these nerves and complement the information gained from anatomical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences. With DTI it is possible to reconstruct nerve pathways and visualize the three-dimensional trajectory of nerve fibers, as in nerve tractography. More importantly, DTI allows for quantitative evaluation of peripheral nerves by the calculation of several important parameters t...
