Nomenclature for the Constitutional (Intrinsic) Diseases of Bone

Abstract

Radiographs of stillborn and dead newborn infants have been analysed to assess the incidence of evidence of foetal death in utero and the occurrence of skeletal abnormalities. A consultative centre for congenital bone diseases is being established at the Royal Alexandra Hospital for Children in Sydney. Skeletal survey films, photographs of the patient, and basic biochemical tests should be available in cases for consultation. For consultation or information, radiologists or other clinicians should write to K. Kozlowski, M.D., Department of Radiology, Royal Alexandra Hospital for Children, Camperdown, N.S.W., Australia, 2050.
