Figure 2. Conventional radiographs of the knee and pelvis characteristic of CPPD.

Figure 2.

(a) Anteroposterior radiograph of the right knee shows linear and punctate calcifications of the medial and lateral menisci (arrows) and femoral hyaline cartilage (arrowhead).

(b) Anteroposterior radiograph of the pelvis demonstrates linear calcifications of the fibrocartilage and hyaline cartilage of the pubic symphysis (white arrow), bilateral sacroiliac joints (yellow arrows), right and left hip hyaline cartilage (arrowheads), and left hip labral fibrocartilage (arrowheads). Large cloud-like calcification adjacent to the left ischial tuberosity may represent basic calcium phosphate deposition in the left ilio-psoas bursa or tendon; further imaging was not obtained.
