Abstract

Magnification, or high-resolution radiography, is a widely accepted technique and is currently used in angiography, mammography and pediatric chest radiographs. Small avulsion fractures of the bones of the hand and stress fractures of th tibia are examples of two areas where the fracture may not be apparent on conventional films, although in many cases magnification radiography will demonstrate the lesions. Six representative case histories are provided to illustrate the use of magnification radiography in sports-related injuries.
