Key Points: Weight bearing CT (WBCT) can detect signs of osteoarthritis (OA), such as osteophytes, subchondral cysts, and joint space narrowing better than radiographs. Emerging evidence suggests WBCT reveals meniscal extrusion not detected by MRI and WBCT arthrography visualizes meniscal tears.

There is great value in comparing both ankles to reduce the chance of diagnostic error related to the large anatomical variability of the distal tibiofibular area. Overall, I see great value for WBCT in detecting “subtle” ligamentous injuries, which are those more likely to go unseen on traditional imaging.
