    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Sports Medicine

    Background:

    • Ankle sprains are common, particularly in athletes.
    • Accurate diagnosis is crucial for appropriate treatment and prognosis.
    • Current imaging may not always distinguish between mild and severe ligamentous injuries.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the diagnostic value of ankle arthrography in evaluating ankle sprains.
    • To emphasize the role of arthrography in surgical decision-making.
    • To guide radiologists and orthopedic surgeons in managing ankle sprains.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of ankle sprain diagnosis and management.
    • Discussion of the utility of ankle arthrography as an imaging modality.
    • Comparison of arthrography with plain films and stress films.

    Main Results:

    • Ankle arthrography accurately assesses the severity of ankle sprains.
    • It differentiates between injuries requiring surgery and those amenable to conservative therapy.
    • Arthrography aids in distinguishing ligament ruptures from less severe sprains.

    Conclusions:

    • Ankle arthrography is a valuable tool for radiologists in diagnosing severe ankle sprains.
    • It significantly aids orthopedic surgeons in patient management and prognosis.
    • The procedure can improve outcomes for athletes by guiding safe return to sports.
