Reason: eval for tendon injury, r/o foreign body History: dorsomedial foot pain, injury to plantar foot with question of retained glass Right foot: A marker was placed along the ball of the foot. Deep to the marker, we see no mass or focal abnormality suggestive of a foreign body. There is a small amount of fluid along the tendons just proximal to the knot of Henry, which is incompletely imaged and may represent a mild tenosynovitis but is of questionable clinical significance. Mild osteoarthritis affects the first MTP joint and there is a small amount of fluid within the joint. We see no marrow signal abnormalities to suggest a fracture. The remaining soft tissue structures appear normal.Left foot: A marker was placed along the ball of the foot. Deep to the marker, we see no mass or focal abnormality suggestive of a foreign body.

1. Mild osteoarthritis of the first MTP joints bilaterally.2. Small amount of fluid at the knot of Henry bilaterally may represent a mild tenosynovitis but is of questionable clinical significance.3. We see no findings to confirm a retained foreign body. If further imaging evaluation is clinically warranted, targeted ultrasound may be considered.
