    AbstractIn summary, the diagnosis of a tarsal navicular stress fracture should be entertained in the athlete with ill-defined midfoot pain. Technetium bone scans will often point the clinician in the right direction; biplanar CT scans will pin-point the diagnosis and can be invaluable in perioperative planning. Subsequent treatment, however, must be determined on a clinical rather than a radiographic basis.
