Abstract:
This article presented a rational approach to imaging of navicular pathology. The indications, techniques, and limitations of conventional radiographic imaging were discussed. In addition, the role of advanced imaging techniques, including MRI, CT, and NMI, in the diagnosis of navicular pathology was presented. By appropriately combining plain radiographic imaging with advanced imaging modalities, an accurate diagnosis is typically obtained.
