Metabolic and Endocrine Disorders

  • Chapter
Imaging of the Hip & Bony Pelvis

Part of the book series: Medical Radiology ((Med Radiol Diagn Imaging))

  • 2079 Accesses

21.6 Conclusion

Metabolic and endocrine diseases affect the entire skeleton. Recognition of the radiological manifestations of these conditions in the pelvis and hips should therefore stimulate inquiry into the relevant biochemical status of the patient and may also precipitate further radiological investigation as appropriate
