The authors present a brief review of the literature concerning magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as applied to the musculoskeletal system. Two patients are presented with nonspecific foot pain. MRI demonstrated an area of hyperintensity, suggestive of an inflammatory process, in both cases. Biopsy later confirmed the diagnosis of chronic inflammation.
