Figure 3

The correlation of perfusion parameter A (a.u.) and MRI-T2* value (msec) in control rats (inverted triangles) and CKD rats (black circles). All symbols represent measurements made in the right knee joint. Correlations between perfusion parameter A values and MRI-T2* values in the IPFP were significantly negative in the control and CKD groups (p < 0.001). The CKD group, compared to control group, had a higher negative correlation coefficient (ρ =  − 0.815) between perfusion parameter A and MRI-T2* (p < 0.001).
