Evidence & Innovation for Scaffold Augmented One-Step Cartilage Repair
Host: Fabio Sciarretta (IT)
Speakers: Justus Gille (DE), Philip Roessler (DE), Fabio Sciarretta (IT)
Description:
It is our pleasure to present an interesting program on the current topic of biologic enhanced one-stage cartilage repair in the knee joint with top-class, internationally recognized cartilage experts. In interesting short lectures and exciting OP videos you will learn about innovative approaches and get an overview of how these methods differ from other cartilage repair procedures. During the subsequent interactive discussion with the experts, you will have the opportunity to clarify all your questions on this topic.

Spend One Hour with ICRS Giant Daniël BF Saris: „Innovation Driven by Patient Needs“
Host: Aaron Krych (US)
Speaker: Daniel Saris (US), ICRS Past President
Description: Patient clinical need can often be the best inspiration for innovation. For treatment of articular cartilage injury, frequently this innovation can be challenging to take from inception to proving the concept in pre-clinical studies, and finally approval for clinical trial. In this session, we will trace the successful journey for single stage surgical treatment of cartilage defects with autologous chondrons and MSCs. We will include lessons learned along the way, and how the process can be synergistically applied to other strategies in joint cartilage and tissue repair and healing.

Imaging in Cartilage Repair: “Music in the Air with AMADEUS and MOCART”
Host: Stefan Marlovits (AT)
Speakers: Stefan Marlovits (AT), Siegfrid Trattnig (AT), Götz Welsch (DE)
Description:
The aim of the event is to present the current possibilities of radiological imaging of cartilage and cartilage repair. We present the current technology and the possibilities of scoring: AMADEUS (pre-operative scoring) and MOCART (post-operative scoring).
Learning Objectives:
Understand magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in cartilage and cartilage repair and to use it correctly in the diagnosis of cartilage damage and the follow-up after cartilage repair.
