Abstract:
The study of musculoskeletal disease of the foot and ankle has been revitalized with the advent of cross-sectional imaging modalities. MR imaging provides unsurpassed, high soft tissue contrast resolution and multiplanar capabilities. It offers to the foot and ankle surgeon a quick and noninvasive tool for the diagnosis of a variety of soft tissue and bony disorders that are often difficult to diagnose with alternative modalities. This article focuses on the role of MR imaging in diagnosing ankle and foot disease.

Definition and Purpose
An X-ray, or radiograph, is a non-invasive method that uses ionizing radiation to take images of internal structures. It is mainly used in cardiac imaging to examine the heart, lungs, and major blood vessels, aiming to identify abnormalities in the heart's size, shape, and position, such as heart failure, congenital defects, and vascular...
