Osseous degenerative changes are changes in the bone density and structure of the spine. These changes often cause pain and curvature of the spine.
Osseous degenerative changes refer to the gradual deterioration of bone tissue over time. This can include processes such as osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, and degenerative disc disease. These changes can result in decreased bone density, joint pain, and stiffness, leading to functional impairment and increased risk of fractures. Treatment may involve medications, physical therapy, and lifestyle modifications to manage symptoms and prevent further degeneration.
Osseous structures refer to the bony components of the spine that may show signs of degeneration or wear over time. In scattered endplate degenerative changes in the thoracic spine, there may be areas of bony spur formation, disc space narrowing, and sclerosis at the endplates, indicating degenerative changes affecting the bones and discs in that region of the spine. These changes can contribute to symptoms such as pain, stiffness, and limited mobility in the thoracic spine.
It is difficult to say as the reference is not given in context: could it mean the findings are unremarkable considering the age of the patient, i.e. bone structure is as expected in someone of that age
vestibule, cochlea, and perilymph
Visualized osseous structures that are unremarkable in a chest Xray means that everything is normal. Anytime unremarkable is used in an X-ray report it means that the film is normal.
There is no special medical term meaning obscured by overlying osseous structures. The phrase means that something can't be seen well because of the bones between the structure of interest and the viewer.
Typically, it means age-related changes in the bony parts. It's part of life.
Well, honey, when osseous structures are demineralized, it simply means that the bones have lost some of their mineral content. It can happen due to various reasons like osteoporosis or certain medical conditions. Basically, it's like the bones are saying, "Hey, I need some more calcium and minerals up in here!"
Osseous Tissue
Osseous means bony and contusion means bruise.
We humans also have some osseous tissue. Bones are a great example of that.
