Pictorial review: the sonographic diagnosis of pathology in the Achilles tendon.

M A O'Reilly1, H Massouh.   

Abstract

This pictorial essay details Achilles tendon pathology using real-time sonography. Characteristic diagnostic images for tenosynovitis, acute and chronic tendinitis, peritendinitis, nodular tendinitis and complete and partial tendon ruptures are described. The anatomy of the Achilles tendon in relation to these diagnoses is discussed. Ultrasound is recommended as a useful first-line approach in imaging the Achilles tendon.
