Objective:To evaluate the application high-resolution 3.0-T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in diagnosis of ligament and tendon injuries of the forefeet.Methods:From September 2014 to August 2020, 40 patients with forefeet injury (40 forefoot) and 20 healthy subjects (40 forefoot) meeting the including and excluding criteria were enrolled into this retrospective study. All subjects underwent MRI T1-weighted image (T1WI) and fat suppression proton density-weighted imaging (PD-FS) scan on coronal planes, sagittal planes and axial planes, respectively. Then the MRI characteristics of tendons in forefoot of healthy subjects and patients with forefoot injuries were compared. In patients the MR features of ligament and tendons injury were compared with the surgical findings or follow-up results.Results:In 20 normal subjects the tendons and ligament of the forefoot showed homogeneous low-signal-intensity on T1WI and PD-FS images. In the 40 patients with forefoot injuries, 22 cases were confirmed by surgical findings and 18 cases were confirmed by follow-up results. There were 8 cases of collateral ligament injuries, including 2 cases with complete tear, 3 cases with partial tear and 3 cases with sprain; 2 cases of extensor tendon with partial tear; 8 cases of flexor tendon injuries, including 3 cases with complete tear, 3 cases with partial tear and 2 cases with sprain; 3 cases of abductor tendon with partial tear; 13 cases of plantar plate injuries; and 6 cases of Lisfranc ligament injuries including 5 cases with complete tear and 1 case with partial tear. The injured ligament and tendons presented thicker and discontinuity in T1WI; and demonstrated heterogeneously increased signal intensity with edema in the surrounding soft tissues in PD-FS. The partially torn ligament and tendons showed discontinuity and thickening; and the completely torn ligament and tendons showed that they were interrupted and retracted, fiber structure disappeared and was filled with liquid, and edema in the surrounding soft tissue.Conclusion:High resolution magnetic resonance imaging of the forefoot can demonstrate the anatomy and features of ligament and tendon injuries in forefoot accurately, which has clinical application value for the early diagnosis and accurate treatment of the injury.

[Objective]To explore the MRI features of the mucinous breast carcinoma and the correlation with biological prognos?tic factors.[Methods]MRI features of 35 pure and 15 mixed mucinous carcinomas were retrospectively analyzed. MR images were reviewed for shape,margin,the signal intensity,enhancement patterns of tumors and DWI features. All the patients were detected by immunohistochemical staining with expression of ER,PR,CerbB-2,Ki-67 and Her-2. Correlations between the pure and mixed mucinous breast carcinoma and prognostic factors were analyzed.[Results]16 oval masses(16/35,45.7%)and 10 circular masses (10/35,28.6%)were found in 35 pure mucinous breast carcinomas with clear boundary(26/35,74.3%)and lobulated shape(31/35,88.6%);9 irregular masses(9/15,60%)were found in mixed mucinous breast carcinomas with unclear boundary(13/15, 86.7%). Very high signal intensity on T2-weighted images was found in 33 pure mucinous carcinomas(33/35,94.3%)and 11 mixed mucinous carcinomas showed mixed signal intensity(11/15,73.3%). Early enhancement rate was(114.7 ± 9.1)% for pure muci?nous carcinomas and(165.6 ± 14.3)%for mixed mucinous carcinomas. 28 pure mucinous tumors demonstrated persistent enhancing pattern on time-signal intensity curve ,7 pure mucinous tumors demonstrated plateau pattern and 7 mixed mucinous carcinomas showed plateau pattern and washout pattern respectively. Mean ADC value was(1.91 ± 0.06)×10-3 mm2/s for pure mucinous carcino?mas and(1.13±0.08)×10-3mm2/s for mixed mucinous carcinomas. There was significant difference with morphology,boundary,T2WI signal,early enhancement rate,time-signal intensity curve,ADC value between pure and mixed mucinous breast carcinoma(P <0.05). There was significant difference between pure and mixed mucinous breast carcinoma with Her-2 and Ki-67 expression(P <0.05).[Conclusion]MRI could identify PMBC and MMBC from the shape,the signal intensity,dynamic enhancement and ADC val?ue,and PMBC had distinctive MRI features. The prognosis of MMBC is worse than that of PMBC form correlation between biological prognostic factors and mucinous breast carcinoma.
