Open Access Abstract Articular cartilage hyaline cartilage defects resulting from traumatic injury or degenerative joint disease do not repair themselves spontaneously. Therefore such defects may require novel regenerative strategies to restore biologically and biomechanically functional tissue. Recently tissue engineering using a complex of cells and scaffold has emerged as a new approach for repairing cartilage defects and restoring cartilage function. With the advent of this new technology accurate methods for evaluating articular cartilage have become important. In particular in vivo evaluation is essential for determining
