French term or phrase: condensation osseuse
Scanner abdomino pelvien [...] Par ailleurs : foie multi nodulaire bilobaire d'allure secondaire, zone de condensation osseuse et rachis

Is anyone able to help with the translation of "condensation osseuse" here please. I've had a look through previous entries but can't find anything that fits this particular context. I know that "consolidation" is sometimes used but not sure it works here...

Thank you :)

Osteoarthritis is actually related to higher bone density. Increased bone density can result in bony outgrowths, also called osteophytes, or bone spurs. These can literally rip apart joint cartilage and decrease the ability of cartilage to protect the joint.

osteosclerosis


Explanation:
Osteosclerosis is a disorder that is characterized by abnormal hardening of bone and an elevation in bone density. It may predominantly affect the medullary portion and/or cortex of bone. Plain radiographs are a valuable tool for detecting and classifying osteosclerotic disorders.It can manifest in localized or generalized osteosclerosis. Localized osteosclerosis can be caused by Legg–Calvé–Perthes disease, sickle-cell disease and osteoarthritis among others. Osteosclerosis can be classified in accordance with the causative factor into acquired and hereditary.
