Abstract:
Sports injuries of the foot and ankle are commonly encountered in clinical practice. Ultrasound is very useful for the diagnosis of such injuries, because it is more economical, readily accessible, and can perform a dynamic study compared to magnetic resonance imaging. This review focused on the sonographic features of common foot and ankle sports injuries.
