The foot and ankle region, distinguished by its complex and intricate anatomy, is frequently susceptible to injuries, particularly in the context of sports-related activities and fall-related trauma. This article reviews the literature with respect to 3-Dimensional (3D) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of foot and ankle. Technical considerations and imaging and interpretation-related advantages and pitfalls will be discussed with relevant case examples. 3D MRI is advantageous over 2-Dimensional (2D) MRI in producing higher spatial resolution in a short duration of time with less partial volume artifacts and in creating structure-specific imaging using multiplanar and curved planar reconstructions. The reader will be able to apply such principles in their practice in obtaining higher-resolution volume imaging of ankle and foot with respect to ligaments, tendons, articular cartilage, plantar fascia, plantar plate, and peripheral nerves for the benefit of their patients and referring physicians.
