Abstract
Rupture of the Achilles tendon is an urgent but usually clinically apparent orthopedic problem. Repair must be made promptly for full recovery. A number of methods of radiographic evaluation have been proposed to confirm the diagnosis of Achilles rupture. This report describes a case in which magnetic resonance imaging provided exquisite definition of the injury to the Achilles tendon.Keywords
