The foot and ankle are frequently injured during sporting events. In many cases, the diagnosis is apparentbased on the history, physical examination, and plain radiographs. In other cases, the presentation may be confusing or nonspecific. In these cases, special imaging modalities may be useful to determine or confirm the diagnosis. This article will show examples of sports injuries for which special-imaging modalities may be particularly useful in determining the correct diagnosis, such as ligament and tendon injuries, normal variants, tarsal tunnel syndrome, occult fractures, and stress fractures.
