  • Title: MR imaging of midfoot injury.
    Author: Ting AY, Morrison WB, Kavanagh EC.
    Journal: Magn Reson Imaging Clin N Am; 2008 Feb; 16(1):105-15, vi. PubMed ID: 18440481.
    Abstract:
    MR imaging is the imaging modality of choice for the evaluation of acute and chronic injuries of the midfoot. The complex anatomy of this region demands the multiplanar capabilities of this modality, and because injuries of this region most commonly involve the tendon, ligament, and muscular supports of the foot and ankle, MR imaging offers superior soft tissue resolution. MR imaging has the added advantage of accurate osseous injury characterization in most instances; however, CT also may be required, because the two modalities are complementary for demonstrating pathology of bone.
