Abstract
This chapter covers calcium and bone metabolism. It starts with the physiology of bone, investigation of the bones, imaging, mass measurements, and biopsy, then goes on to investigation of calcium, phosphate, and magnesium. Urine excretion and calcium-regulating hormones are explained. It goes on to hypercalcaemia, primary hyperparathyroidism and its treatment, vitamin D intoxication, sarcoidosis, and hypocalcaemia. Vitamin D deficiency, Paget’s disease, and inherited disorders of bone are all included. The pathology, epidemiology, presentation, investigation, and treatment of osteoporosis are covered in detail.
