The number of citations an article receives is reflective of its impact on the scientific community. The top 100 most cited articles were identified using the Web of Science database. Data relating to the publication year, publishing journal, number of citations, primary institution, journal impact factor, authorship, country of origin, radiological modality, and keywords were collected. In the top 100 list, the number of citations per article ranged from 149 to 709 (median 208; mean 240). Per article, the average number of citations per year ranged from five to 60 (median 12; mean 26). The United States was the most common country of origin (n=74). The journal with the greatest number of articles was Radiology (n=34). The University of California contributed the most articles (n=11). This study presents a detailed analysis of the top 100 most cited articles published in musculoskeletal radiology. It affords clinicians and researchers an understanding of the characteristics of the current most influential research papers in this field. It also highlights research trends and areas that may benefit from further research.
