This was seen in an xray along with a fracture. Also seen were the words significant effusion. All these terms were on the xray. I am asking what do vascular calcification and significant effusion mean. Thank You.
If they are calcified, such as an aorta that has plaque build up. Abdominal aortic aneurysms can sometimes be seen on xray in this situation. However, in general, arteries do not show up on xray.
Primary centers of ossification first appear in the diaphysis of long bones during embryonic development, around the 8th week of gestation. This is where bone tissue begins to replace cartilage through endochondral ossification.
