This article is intended for the clinician charged with either diagnosing or treating patients with lower extremity symptoms thought to be of musculoskeletal etiology. It gives a brief overview of the imaging techniques that can be utilized, common pathology, and certain pearls and pitfalls that may be encountered in both ordering and interpreting lower extremity magnetic resonance imaging. While we cannot present a comprehensive discussion of all of the known disorders in the lower extremity, we will choose common disorders to illustrate the diagnostic benefits and limitations of magnetic resonance imaging and provide reasons for choosing certain magnetic resonance imaging techniques.
本文面向的是负责诊断或治疗以下肢症状为主诉且病因考虑为肌肉骨骼源性的患者的临床医生。文中简述了可应用的影像学检查技术、常见病变以及在下肢磁共振成像的申请和判读中可能遇到的一些要点和陷阱。虽然我们无法全面讨论下肢所有已知病变，但会选择一些常见病变来阐述磁共振成像的诊断优势和局限性，并说明选择某些磁共振成像技术的原因。
