Parenchymal calcification refers to the abnormal accumulation of calcium deposits within the parenchymal tissues of an organ. This calcification can occur due to various conditions such as infections, inflammation, or metabolic disorders and may affect the normal function of the organ. Detection of parenchymal calcifications on imaging studies like X-rays or CT scans can help in diagnosing underlying diseases.
Calcification refers to the accumulation of calcium salts in body tissues. This process can lead to the hardening or stiffening of tissues, which may impair normal functioning. Calcification is commonly seen in conditions such as atherosclerosis and kidney stones.
Ossification is the process of bone formation, where cartilage is replaced by bone tissue. Calcification is the process of deposition of calcium salts in tissues, making them hard and rigid. While ossification specifically refers to bone formation, calcification can occur in various tissues in the body.
Costochondral calcification is the abnormal hardening or calcification of the cartilage that connects the ribs to the breastbone (sternum). This condition can cause chest pain, difficulty breathing, and tenderness in the affected area. Treatment may involve pain management and addressing any underlying causes, such as inflammation or injury.
Calcification of cartilage typically occurs during the process of endochondral ossification, which is the process of bone formation from a cartilage model. This typically occurs during development in utero and continues into early childhood. Embryonic mesenchymal cells differentiate into chondrocytes, which then undergo calcification to form the initial scaffold for bone formation.
"Clacification" seems to be a misspelling. If you meant "calcification," it refers to the accumulation of calcium salts in body tissues. In medicine, it can occur in various organs like the kidneys, arteries, or breast tissue, leading to potential health issues depending on the location and extent of calcification.
calcification of the aorta inferiorly?
It is unlikely that the calcification will disappear.
The phrase "calcification of the thoracic" is incomplete. There a missing word after "thoracic."
Can radiation therapy cause imflamation and calcification on breast mammeogram? No, it will not cause calcification, it causes something called radiation pneumonitis, its where the lung becomes too inflammed to be useful. I can be seen as a density on xrays but not as a calcification
The issue is not damage to the implants, but the discomfort that breast calcification can cause when it occurs around an implant. Heavy calcification may require removal of the implant.
Never heard of calcification of appendix. No such medical term exists
Calcification means calcium is being deposited somewhere. Vascular calcification means there are deposits of calcium in the blood vessels. This turns the vessels hard like bone.

The side effects of too much calcium can include problems like thicker bone density and even calcification deposits on internal organs. It can also cause kidney stones.

Calcification is when there is an accumulation of calcium salts and prostatic refers to the prostate. A CT scan or an ultrasound can be used for diagnosing the condition. Prostate calcification is a "scar" that remains after prostatitis gets cured. Early stage prostate calcification is a fibrosis of prostate. Common it is occur with no symptom. Such a fibrosis may occur in your body but you feel nothing about it. As prostate fibrosis develops, there would be calcification spots. One can try Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill to cure this condition.
