Ankle and foot injuries are extremely common among athletes and nonathletes alike.
Clinical findings are often nonspecific, and many injuries are difficult to diagnose
with imaging, even using advanced techniques, and a delay in diagnosis may have significant
adverse long-term consequences. Thus it is important to be familiar with the location
and imaging appearances of these injuries. This article addresses several injuries
that are commonly missed when imaging the ankle and foot.
