Abstract

Pool sizes and internal fluxes of minerals can be quantitatively determined by tracer-kinetic investigations and compartmental analysis. Investigations performed in 252 patients revealed characteristic patterns for calcium pools and fluxes with respect to disease. The method provides a useful diagnostic tool in the early detection of metabolic bone disorders and in problems of differential diagnostics.
