Osteoarthritis represents a kind of chronic and degenerative joint disease characterized by articular cartilage injury and osteoproliferation. Osteoarthritis especially poses a serious threat to the elderly patients. At present, the diagnosis of osteoarthritis mainly consists of clinical examination, X-ray examination, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and arthroscopy. However, limitations and misdiagnosis are found within the single method.
