Fig. 3C. —27-year-old man with paraplegia who presented with large chronic heel ulcer and clinically suspected calcaneal osteomyelitis. Sagittal T1-weighted fat-suppressed contrast-enhanced fast multiplanar spoiled gradient-recalled MR image (250/2.1; flip angle, 90°) reveals extensive contrast enhancement (arrowheads) in calcaneus, confirming osteomyelitis. Marked contrast enhancement (arrow) in distal Achilles tendon is compatible with focal infection of Achilles tendon. Contrast enhancement in navicular bone and talus may reflect neuropathic arthropathy in Chopart's joint. Focal contrast enhancement in distal tibia around pin tract from previously removed distraction device is also visible.
