Morphological variability of the fibularis longus and brevis muscles on magnetic resonance imaging

Puntos clave

• MRI reliably detects the morphological and positional variability of the fibularis tendons, indicating significant clinical relevance.
• Findings validate established cadaveric classifications, showing consistency with anatomical structures in living populations.
• MRI analysis emphasizes the clinical importance of distinguishing between normal variants and pathological conditions.
• These insights shed light on population-specific patterns, supporting better diagnostic practices in ankle imaging.
