While X\u2010rays are accessible, MRI provides detailed insights into meniscus and cartilage. Few studies have evaluated the correlation between X\u2010ray and MRI findings in knee OA longitudinally. This study addresses this gap by investigating their relationship over time.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study (MOST) dataset, a public, longitudinal cohort study focusing on knee OA in older adults, was used. The analysis included 3710 knees with medial compartment OA from different follow\u2010ups over the course of 7 years. X\u2010ray findings were compared with MRI findings, encompassing cartilage, meniscal and bone pathologies.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      In the central compartment, knee OA progression began with cartilage loss, followed by meniscal and bone pathology, while in the posterior compartment, meniscal changes preceded cartilage and bone lesions. Cartilage loss in the central femur was the earliest event, even in Kellgren\u2013Lawrence grade 0 knees, preceding X\u2010ray changes. Tibial osteophytes developed first on X\u2010ray, followed by joint space narrowing and femoral osteophytes. Longitudinal regression identified meniscal extrusion, cartilage loss and meniscal tear as significant predictors of OA progression (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.001), with meniscal extrusion being the strongest.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Knee OA progression differs by compartment, with cartilage loss initiating changes centrally and meniscal pathology leading posteriorly.
