The 26 bones of the foot create an architectural vault, sup-ported by three arches and resting on the ground at three points, which lie at the corners of an equilateral triangle (Fig. 2). Ligaments bind the bones to provide the static stability of the foot. The dynamic stability of the vault is achieved by the
This cross-sectional human anatomy atlas of the ankle and foot is a new tool based on MR images of the human body. Anatomical structures of the ankle and foot and specific regions (major joints) are visible as dynamic labeled images.
Most of the motion of the ankle is caused by the stronger muscles in the lower leg whose tendons pass by the ankle and connect in the foot. Contraction of the muscles in the leg is the main way that we move our ankle when we walk, run, and jump.
19 Νοε 2024 · Foot and ankle anatomy consists of 33 bones, 26 joints and over a hundred muscles, ligaments and tendons. This complex network of structures fit and work together to bear weight, allow movement and provide a stable base for us to stand and move on.
