Abstract/OtherAbstract:
To evaluate the ankle and foot after surgery it is important to understand the primary clinical diagnosis, the surgical procedure performed, the interval since surgery, and patients' current clinical symptoms. Standard radiography is the most common imaging modality for evaluating the postoperative ankle and foot. This article also discusses when computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging maybe used for evaluating the foot and ankle after surgery.
