Patients presenting with metatarsalgia may also have computed tomography (CT) as part of their investigation to look for alternative causes such as stress fracture. Although CT is considered to be of most use in assessing the bones in this scenario, the soft tissues can also be reviewed. This study analyses whether MNBC can reliably be detected on CT in patients presenting with metatarsalgia.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Material and methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>43 cases were identified on the Radiology Information System where both CT and ultrasound had been undertaken to assess for metatarsalgia. Two blinded consultant musculoskeletal radiologists retrospectively reviewed the CTs to determine the presence or absence of MNBC and this was compared to the ultrasound reports.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>There was a\u00a0mean sensitivity of 45.5% and mean specificity of 62.5%.
