摘要
PURPOSE: To evaluate the diagnostic capabilities of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in the tarsometatarsal ([TMT] Lisfranc) joint with close anatomic correlation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Six normal cadaveric feet were imaged by using T1-weighted spin-echo (oblique axial) and three-dimensional spoiled gradient-recalled acquisition in the steady state ([SPGR] coronal, sagittal) sequences. Subsequently, gadolinium-enhanced arthrography was performed in three specimens followed by T1-weighted spin-echo and SPGR MR imaging. Specimens were sectioned in all three planes followed by correlation of the MR imaging results with gross anatomic findings. RESULTS: In all specimens, the oblique axial and, less effectively, the coronal and sagittal planes allowed visualization of the Lisfranc ligament. Intermetatarsal ligaments were seen almost exclusively on the coronal images, and TMT ligaments on the sagittal images. bone alignment could be assessed on the oblique axial images. CONCLUSION: MR imaging reliably depicts the anatomy of the TMT joint including ligamentous and osseous structures.
