MRI of peroneal tendinopathies resulting from trauma or overuse.

In spite of highly efficient diagnostic modalities at our disposal, pathological conditions of the peroneal tendons still tend to be underdiagnosed as a cause of lateral ankle pain. The purpose of this review is to summarise and illustrate common and less common MRI findings in repetitive or single mechanical lesions of the peroneal region as well as predisposing anatomical variants.
