PMID 38313660WHAT IT FOUND
A technique guide for ultrasound of lateral ankle ligaments.
It describes probe positions and tear appearances, but reports no patient outcomes or diagnostic accuracy.
What this paper is
This is a narrative technique guide describing how to position the probe and what normal and torn ligaments may look like on ultrasound. It contains no methods, no diagnostic accuracy analysis, and no patient outcomes, so there is no finding to act on.
