The Achilles tendon, also known as the tendo Achilles, tendo calcaneus or calcaneal tendon, is the longest tendon of the body, formed by the union of the lower aspect of the calf muscles (gastrocnemius, soleus and the variably present plantaris muscle). The tendon inserts by way of a broad insertion on the calcaneus (heel bone) of the hindfoot. During development, the Achilles tendon is continuous with the broad flat tendon of the foot known as the plantar fascia (figure 1). Figure 1. Normal MRI of the Achilles tendon demonstrates this to be a well defined hypointense (dark) structure (arrow) inserting onto the calcaneus, thereafter becoming continuous with the plantar fascia (arrow).
