CLINICAL HANDBOOK OF FOOT AND ANKLE RADIOLOGYPrinciples, Techniques, Trauma Assessment, Pathology, and Advanced Imaging Applications in Musculoskeletal DiagnosisGentry A. Merrow, MDThe foot and ankle represent one of the most complex regions of the musculoskeletal system, requiring precise imaging interpretation for accurate diagnosis and effective clinical management. Clinical Handbook of Foot and Ankle Radiology provides a comprehensive, practical, and clinically focused approach to the evaluation of common and complex disorders affecting this region.This essential reference integrates fundamental radiological principles with modern imaging techniques, helping clinicians recognize injury patterns, characterize pathology, and apply imaging findings to patient care.Inside this handbook, readers will explore: - The foundations of foot and ankle radiology, including anatomy, imaging protocols, radiographic evaluation, and the role of different imaging modalities in clinical practice.- Comprehensive assessment of traumatic conditions, including ankle fractures, dislocations, calcaneal fractures, Lisfranc injuries, stress fractures, and complex sports-related injuries.- Advanced evaluation of soft tissue disorders, including tendon abnormalities, ligament injuries, plantar fascia disorders, nerve entrapment syndromes, and chronic heel pain conditions.- Imaging features of degenerative, inflammatory, and infectious diseases, including arthritis, osteomyelitis, and other pathological conditions affecting the foot and ankle.- Diagnosis and characterization of tumors, tumor-like lesions, congenital abnormalities, developmental disorders, osteonecrosis, and vascular conditions.- Modern imaging advances, including weight-bearing CT, MRI, ultrasound applications, image-guided interventions, and structured radiology reporting.Designed for radiologists, orthopedic surgeons, sports medicine specialists, podiatrists, fellows, residents, and healthcare professionals involved in musculoskeletal diagnosis, this handbook provides a practical framework for interpreting foot and ankle imaging with confidence.With its emphasis on anatomy, pathology recognition, imaging strategy, and clinical application, Clinical Handbook of Foot and Ankle Radiology serves as a valuable resource for improving diagnostic accuracy and supporting evidence-based management of foot and ankle disorders.
