title: [Radiological study of the hand of patients undergoing periodic hemodialysis. Possibilities and limitations of the method as an index of the evolution of the uremic disease].
abstract: The periodic X-ray examination of the hand in 50 patients in hemodialysis shows a good correlation between the radiologic findings and bone bioptic patterns. The method had instead a lesser interest in following the evolution of vascular and metastatic calcification.
