  • Title: The use of magnetic resonance imaging in posterior tibial tendon dysfunction.
    Author: Feighan J, Towers J, Conti S.
    Journal: Clin Orthop Relat Res; 1999 Aug; (365):23-38. PubMed ID: 10627683.
    Abstract:
    The role of magnetic resonance imaging in the evaluation of the patient with posterior tibial tendon dysfunction is discussed. Considerations for the proper positioning of the patient and optimal technique to obtain appropriate images of the posterior tibial tendon and associated joint abnormalities are highlighted. Cases are presented to show the effectiveness of magnetic resonance imaging in different clinical situations. The treatment algorithm for posterior tibial tendon dysfunction should include magnetic resonance imaging as a diagnostic tool when appropriate.
