  • Title: Tarsal navicular stress fractures: radiographic evaluation.
    Author: Pavlov H, Torg JS, Freiberger RH.
    Journal: Radiology; 1983 Sep; 148(3):641-5. PubMed ID: 6224230.
    Abstract:
    Tarsal navicular stress fractures are a potential source of disabling foot pain in physically active individuals. The diagnosis of tarsal navicular stress fracture requires a high index of clinical and radiographic suspicion because the fracture is only rarely evident on routine radiographs or standard tomograms. The radiographic diagnosis of a tarsal navicular stress fracture may require anatomic anteroposterior tomograms or a radionuclide bone scan with plantar views. Radiographic examinations of 23 fractures in 21 patients are evaluated.
