Proper Use of The ImplantDosing - The amount of autologous cultured chondrocytes
needed to repair damaged knee cartilage will be different for different patients.
It will depend on the size of the damaged area. Most patients will receive
between 0.64 million and 3.3 million cells for each square centimeter of damaged
area. (A square centimeter covers an area slightly longer than 3/8 of an inch
on each side.)
