Avascular Necrosis Treatment
As this eMedTV segment explains, treating avascular necrosis may involve medications, exercises, surgery, or other options. This article explains the treatment options in detail, including when each type is generally used.
Avasular Necrosis
Avascular necrosis develops when there is a temporary or permanent loss of blood supply to the bones. This eMedTV article covers the causes of the disease and lists possible symptoms. Avasular necrosis is a common misspelling of avascular necrosis.

Blood Clots and ACL Surgery
Some procedures may result in blood clots, and ACL surgery has a small risk of this occurring. This eMedTV resource explains how blood clots form, describes where a clot can develop in ACL surgery, and discusses treatment options.
Bone
Bone is a living, growing tissue that is mostly made of collagen. This resource provides information on the formation and different types of this tissue, as well as a brief description of how osteoporosis develops.
Bone Density Test
Similar to an x-ray, a bone density test measures your bone health and response to osteoporosis treatment. This eMedTV article explains how this test is performed, how it is scored, and who should consider having it.
