[On the clinical value of roentgenological observation of the clinical course of renal osteopathy (author's transl)].
Basing on radiological observation of the course of renal osteopathy confirmed both clinically and by bone biopsy in 96 patients -- the x-ray examination comprising primarily the entire axial skeleton including the proximal extremities and hands -- 60% of the patients showed mineralisation in their hands. The rest of the skeleton was affected only if there were identifiable alterations at the hands, although the affection of the axial skeleton was definitely lower in terms of percentage. Hence, radiological observation of renal osteopathy based on x-ray films of both hands with additional magnification technique appears both possible and meaningful.
