Figure 11. (a) Acute neuroarthropathy with soft tissue oedema. Sagittal T1 weighted image demonstrating loss of the normal fatty marrow signal in the midfoot and loss of the normal signal from the subcutaneous tissues indicating oedema. (b) Sagittal short tau inversion recovery (STIR) image demonstrating bone marrow oedema and soft tissue oedema in the midfoot. The appearances may mimic infection both clinically and on imaging.
