Beyond Osteoporosis: Imaging Spectrum of Metabolic Bone Disease and Diagnoses You Don’t Want to Miss
Kevin R. Math, MD
Sunday, April 12, 2026, 2:00pm to 2:45pm Eastern Time (NY/USA)
Description
While much of our clinical focus is the diagnosis and management of osteoporosis, it is important to recognize the characteristic imaging features of other causes of decreased or increased bone mineral density, pathologic fracture, and other disorders that may mimic osteoporosis. This talk reviews the spectrum of imaging findings of common (and some uncommon) metabolic bone diseases, differential diagnosis, and pearls and pitfalls for accurate diagnosis. Examples of delayed or missed diagnosis will be highlighted.
