Osteosclerosis is a type of osteopetrosis that involves abnormal hardening of bone and an elevation in bone density.It can be a pathology, normally detected on a radiograph as an area of increased opacity; that is, where more mineral is present in the bone to absorb or deflect the X-ray beam.steosclerosis is a type of osteopetrosis that involves abnormal hardening of bone and an elevation in bone density.

Skeletal sclerosis is typically referred to as bone sclerosis. According to Biology Online, bone sclerosis is an abnormal increase in density and hardening of bone.. When patients with osteoarthritis or osteoma are injured, the bone compresses and thickens, resulting in increased bone density.keletal sclerosis in these areas is usually painful and requires further evaluation. Large bone sclerosis can include the compact or outer layer of bone and the interior cavity or inner layer. Causes can range from growth irregularities to fatal diseases and conditions such as bone cancer or Engelmann's disease.

Rory26312 responded: Hi Steph. MS is a disease of the central nervous system and I very much doubt that Sclerosis (which means inflamation) of the hip bone is in any way connected.Get a full diagnosis of your current condition and start any treatment options, if you still have symptoms that you feel may be MS related get it checked out then.ory26312 responded: Hi Steph.

Sclerosis is the term used to describe where there has been wear & tear to a bone, and the body has attempted to make the bony area stronger by depositing new bone & calcium into the area. The area shows up as whiter that the rest of the bone in the area (because of the extra calcium)...coliosis is thickening or hardening of the bone. The lower lumbar  spine is the lower back (Disks L1 - L5). Scoliosis in the lower  lumbar spine means you have thickening o … r hardening of the bone in  the lower back (lumbar disks L1-L5).

The bone can either be destroyed (lytic process), or condense which is sclerotic. You can only speculate from the scan what it means. As the radiologist suggested, in most places sclerotic changes indicate a response to treatment, and body creating dense bone around the cancer.here is a sclerotic lesion with central bony destruction in the upper sacrum, noting slightly increased marginal sclerosis. There is increasing sclerosis within a lesion in L3 extending into the left pedicle from the left vertebral body, 2/36, 22 x 26 mm.

In layman terms what does this mean....I have a fracture of the distal radical metaepiphysis but they also found a sclerosis demonstrated posteriorly within the medullary canal of the distal radius and an area of lucency adjacent to this that is measuring 1 cm. there are no other osseous abnormalties demonstrated.r it could mean that a fracture of the bone has lead to infection which is showing up as the areas of sclerosis and lucency.
