Where this comes from

Abstract

The authors describe magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the foot and ankle using a variety of cases studied. This modality represents considerable benefit in dealing with the difficult pathologic conditions, as well as clarifying others that may not be evident on plain radiographs. The soft tissue versus osseous abnormalities may be differentiated on the T1 versus T2 images. An excellent pictorial review dealing with the foot and ankle is offered.
