Magnetic Resonance Imaging Features as Surrogate Markers of X-Linked Hypophosphatemic Rickets Activity

Abstract: Objective: X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH) is the most common form of inheritable rickets. Rickets treatment is monitored by assessing alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels, clinical features, and radiographs. Our objectives were to describe the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of XLH and to assess correlations with disease activity. Study Design: Twenty-seven XLH patients (median age 9.2 years) were included in this prospective single-center observational study. XLH activity was assessed using he… Show more

“…Figure 7 shows the differences between radiographic bone features between a patient with XLH and one with no disease. In individuals without disease, the physis appears as a flat disc between the epiphysis and metaphysis, while the normal zone of provisional calcification (ZPC) is visualized as a continuous, thin band (Lempicki et al, 2017). In the XLH patient, the ZPC is undefined and the physis is widened.…”

“…Both forms of radiographic imaging expose patients to radiation that can lead to tissue damage and increase the patient's risk to cancer (Carpenter et al, 2011). This is especially true in children who are more sensitive to radiation than adults, especially considering that radiographs are often performed on a regular basis for patients with hypophosphatemic rickets (Lempicki et al, 2017). MRI is a form of imaging that uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed images of the body.…”
