Magnetic resonance imaging of both feet showing advanced Charcot joint with complete distortion of the normal anatomy. (A) On the left, an ulcer (arrow) is present on the plantar aspect of the mid/hindfoot with enhancing tissue extending to the bases of the lateral midfoot joints and previous intramedullary rod defect in the distal tibial metaphysis, suggestive of infection. (B) On the right, a large plantar ulcer (arrow) and associated osteomyelitis in the calcaneum, head of talus, remaining cuneiforms, and lateral metatarsal bases.
