Abstract:
The standard for diagnostic radiographic imaging in foot and ankle surgery was until 2012 radiographs with full weight-bearing without any useful alternative. Weight-bearing cone-beam computed tomography (WBCT) was introduced 2012 for foot and ankle use as a new technology that allows 3D imaging with full weight-bearing which should be not influenced by projection and/or foot orientation. The assessment of ankle osteoarthritis with WBCT including the description of healthy status, effect of alignment and7or (in)stability is extensively illustrated in this review article.
