Abstract
Bone stress injuries (BSIs) are common overuse injuries affecting an athlete’s ability to participate in sport. Advancements in understanding the pathophysiology, risk factors and management strategies related to BSIs can improve clinical care. This infographic informs clinicians on how to translate the latest research findings from an international Delphi consensus on BSIs in athletes1 into clinical practice, including optimal strategies for the evaluation and treatment of BSIs with the goal of reducing risk of further injury. Plain radiography, computed tomography (CT) and bone scintigraphy are forms of imaging with low sensitivity and/or specificity for confirming the presence and severity of a BSI and involve health concerns of exposure to ionising radiation. Most panellists agree that magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the gold standard for detecting and grading severity of BSI. …
