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