Abstract
Gout, calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease, and apatite calcifications, the three main crystal disorders, may involve the spine. These disorders can be completely asymptomatic or associated with various clinical symptoms, such as acute flares and more chronic manifestations. This article presents the typical and more unusual imaging features encountered in these disorders.
期刊介绍:
Seminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology is a review journal that is devoted to musculoskeletal and associated imaging techniques. The journal''s topical issues encompass a broad spectrum of radiological imaging including body MRI imaging, cross sectional radiology, ultrasound and biomechanics. The journal also covers advanced imaging techniques of metabolic bone disease and other areas like the foot and ankle, wrist, spine and other extremities.
