<br/><br/> Ankle tendons may be affected by a variety of pathologic conditions, including trauma and overuse, inflammatory and metabolic disorders, or infections. Ultrasound is a very sensitive means of detecting tendinous pathology because of its spatial resolution and its comparative and dynamic capabilities. Its wide availability makes it the preferred first-line imaging modality in the case of ankle pain. Knowledge of the normal anatomy, the clinical symptoms, and the setting may help in the differential diagnosis
