-Which radiographic pattern of disease is represented in Figure 17-4?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The radiographic pattern of a radiodense ivory vertebra is characterized by increased radiodensity or whiteness of a vertebral body on an X-ray, making it appear as if it were made of ivory. This pattern is distinct from osteolytic lesions, which would show areas of bone loss or destruction, narrowing of the intervertebral disc space, or anterior vertebral body scalloping, which would involve indentations or concave deformities on the front surface of the vertebral body.
