A member asked:
My mri results(on hips) came back with symmetrical effusion present, bone island present and red marrow conversion present. should i be concerned?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Why joint effusions: Conversion of bone marrow in the extremities from red to yellow is normal maturation process.Marrow reconversion is present when expected yellow marrow is replaced with active red marrow, tends to occur at times of physiologic stress. Bone island is normal dense island of bone.Joint effusions can be seen in rheumatoid arthritis, other rheumatology conditions.Infection and tumor usually unilateral.
