Images of bone, cartilage, and vascularity were acquired simultaneously with a 3-dimensional gradient-recalled-echo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequence. The secondary ossification center volume and total epiphysis cartilage volume ratio and articular-epiphyseal cartilage complex and epiphyseal cartilage widths were measured. Epiphyseal cartilage vascularity was visualized for 9 data sets with quantitative susceptibility mapping and vessel filtering, resulting in 3-dimensional data to inform vessel network segmentation and to calculate vascular density.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Three distinct, non-anastomosing vascular networks (2 peripheral and 1 central) supply the distal femoral epiphyseal cartilage. The central network begins regression as early as 3 months and is absent by 4 years. From 1 month to 3 years, the ratio of central to peripheral vascular area density decreased from 1.0 to 0.5, and the ratio of central to peripheral vascular skeletal density decreased from 0.9 to 0.6. A narrow, peripheral vascular rim was present at 8 years but had disappeared by 10 years. The secondary ossification center progressively acquires the shape of the articular-epiphyseal cartilage complex by 8 years of age, and the central areas of the medial and lateral femoral condyles are the last to ossify.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Using cadaveric pediatric knees, we provide quantitative, 3-dimensional measures of epiphyseal cartilage vascular regression during skeletal development using vessel image features. Central areas with both early vascular regression and delayed ossification correspond to predilection sites of juvenile osteochondritis dissecans in this limited case series.
