Micro-CT images of tibia at 15 weeks post injection. Three-dimensional surface rendering obtained from micro-CT images of a control knee (Control), a MIA-injected knee (MIA), iPS cells transplanted knee (iPSC) and iPS derived chondrocytes transplanted knee (iPS-chondro) at 15 weeks after injection. The control knee maintained the subchondral plate integrity with a smooth contour. The MIA-injected knee showed erosion and pitting of the tibial subchondral plate, which was more severe in the medial tibial plateau. Micro-CT, micro-computed tomography; MIA, monosodium iodoacetate; M, medial tibial plateau
