Sagittal MR images of the right tarsal joint: a SE T1-weighted and (b) GE STIR T2-weighted. Line depicts the section at the level of the medial third of talus (I), middle third of talus (II) and lateral third of talus (III). Tib = tibia, Tal = talus, Cal = calcaneus. Tc = central tarsal bone, T3 = 3rd tarsal bone, T4 = 4th tarsal bone, MIV = 4th metatarsal bone, MV = 5th metatarsal bone. 1 = subchondral bone, 2 = trabecular bone, 3 = articular cartilage, 4 = articular capsule, 5 = short medial collateral ligament (tibiocentral part), 6 = talocalcaneal interosseous ligament, 7 = talocalcaneocentral ligament, 8 = long plantar ligament, 9 = calcaneoquartal ligament, 10 = dorsal intertarsal ligament, 11 = plantar intertarsal ligament, 12 = dorsal tarsometatarsal ligament, 13 = cranial tibial muscle, 14 = long digital extensor muscle, 15 = long digital extensor tendon, 16 = superficial digital flexor muscle, 17 = deep digital flexor muscle, and 18 = deep digital flexor tendon
