Ankle injuries are a common problem among athletes and can be difficult to diagnose. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a powerful tool that can provide detailed images of the ankle and surrounding structures, helping to identify the specific injury. In this video, we'll take a closer look at the use of MRI in the diagnosis of ankle injuries, including the most common types of injuries and their characteristic imaging findings.
We will also discuss the Master Knot of Henry, which is a specific imaging finding that can indicate an ankle ligament injury. The Master Knot of Henry is a small, triangular-shaped area of signal intensity that is seen on MRI in the anterolateral aspect of the ankle. This finding is indicative of a tear in the anterior talofibular ligament and can be a helpful diagnostic tool.
