Abstract

Metabolic bone disease may result from genetic, endocrine, nutritional or biochemical disorders, with variable and often inconsistent imaging findings. For the radiologist, the cornerstone of “metabolic bone disease” has been osteoporosis, osteomalacia, hyperparathy-roidism and Paget’s disease. Over the past three decades each of these diseases has undergone diagnostic and therapeutic changes influenced by biochemical discoveries, imaging advances and epidemiology that in turn have had an impact on current radiological practice.
