Injuries to the Achilles tendon, the body's largest, are common. This review details imaging findings for normal and diseased Achilles tendons, aiding diagnosis.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Radiology
  • Sports Medicine

Background:

  • The Achilles tendon is crucial for mobility but prone to injury.
  • Tendon degeneration and paratenonitis are common conditions affecting the Achilles.
  • Various diseases can impact the Achilles tendon, presenting with diverse imaging features.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a comprehensive pictorial review of Achilles tendon pathology.
  • To correlate imaging findings with specific Achilles tendon diseases.
  • To enhance diagnostic accuracy through understanding imaging appearances.

Main Methods:

  • Review of radiographic imaging.
  • Analysis of computed tomographic (CT) scans.
  • Evaluation of ultrasonographic (US) examinations.

  • Interpretation of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging findings.

    • Main Results:

    • Detailed presentation of normal Achilles tendon imaging characteristics.
    • Illustration of classic and non-specific imaging appearances of Achilles tendon diseases.
    • Correlation of imaging findings with conditions like degeneration, tears, and paratenonitis.

    Conclusions:

    • Accurate interpretation of imaging modalities is vital for diagnosing Achilles tendon disorders.
    • This pictorial essay serves as a reference for radiologists and clinicians.
    • Understanding diverse imaging appearances aids in effective patient management.
