title: [Roentgen diagnosis of injuries of the ankle joint (author's transl)].
abstract: Lesions of the ankle joint affect the bone and/or ligaments. It will often be necessary to conduct additional radiological examinations besides the standard x-ray films. These additional examinations should include: 1. roentgenograms taken at an oblique angle; 2. x-ray films taken in forced extreme joint position in two planes; 3. roentgenograms comparing right and left; 4. arthrography. The article discusses the value and significance of the additional roentgenograms, with particular reference to the importance of the films of the forced extreme joint position.
