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, hyperparathyroidism, and Paget’s disease. Over the past three decades, the diagnosis and therapy of these diseases has changed, influenced by biochemical discoveries, imaging advances, and epidemiology studies that together, in turn, have had a strong impact on current radiological practice.
