A quantitative assessment of the anterior tibiofibular gap with and without weight-bearing in healthy adults: An ultrasound-based study.

Ultrasound measurements for identifying unphysiological increases in ATFG with weight bearing, especially given the side-to-side differences, may provide a means for quantitatively assessing syndesmosis injury in a clinical setting. Further research is warranted to clarify direct attribution as a clinical diagnostic utility of the ATFG measurements for syndesmosis injuries.
