AB Metabolic  bone  diseases  include  skeletal  disorders  related  to  abnormalities  of  the  anabolic  and  catabolic  biochemical  reactions  in  the  body.  They  are  a  diverse  group  of  diseases  that  affect  bone  mass,  bone  turnover,  bone  mineral  homeostasis,  or  bone  growth.  The  causes  can  be  genetic,  nutritional,  or  acquired.  Such  metabolic  bone  disorders  include,  but  are  not  limited  to,  endocrine  dysfunctions,  Paget  disease,  and  osteoporosis.  The  focus  of  this  chapter  is  to  discuss  several  of  the  more  common  metabolic  bone  diseases  with  emphasis  on  review  of  their  imaging  features  and  differential  diagnosis.
