Numerous pathologic processes of the ankle can be diagnosed with use of magnetic resonance imaging. Magnetic resonance imaging allows for high-resolution evaluation of not only the osseous structures of the ankle joint but also the soft-tissue structures including muscles, ligaments, and tendons. There are multiple imaging techniques and pulse sequences with which to evaluate the ankle joint. The purposes of this report are to (1) update orthopaedic surgeons on current magnetic resonance imaging techniques and indications for magnetic resonance imaging of the ankle, and (2) elucidate the typical appearance of the normal ankle joint and its common disease entities on magnetic resonance imaging.Go
