Abstract

Stress fractures are common in young and active individuals, associated with aggressive or repetitive physical activity and their early detection is fundamental to optimise patient care, decrease complications and avoid unnecessary exams. Currently, magnetic resonance imaging is the standard of care for detecting these lesions. Recently, ultrasound has been getting an increasing interest for the detection of stress fractures. In this article, we describe a clinical case that involved a second metatarsal stress fracture diagnosed by ultrasound and review the literature regarding the use of ultrasound in the diagnosis of stress fractures, particularly of the metatarsals.

超声波在早期诊断跖骨应力性骨折方面的能力。

应力性骨折常见于活跃的年轻人，与剧烈或重复的体力活动有关，早期发现应力性骨折对于优化患者护理、减少并发症和避免不必要的检查至关重要。目前，磁共振成像是检测这些病变的标准方法。最近，超声波在检测应力性骨折方面越来越受到关注。在本文中，我们描述了一个通过超声诊断出第二跖骨应力性骨折的临床病例，并回顾了有关使用超声诊断应力性骨折，尤其是跖骨应力性骨折的文献。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
