Evolution of healing by MRI over a course of 8 weeks: soleus with common aponeurosis, a normal anatomical variant, myoconnective junction. Axial T1- and fluid-sensitive images at 24 h (a), 4 weeks (b), and 8 weeks (c). a MR images show an extensive initial lesion with several foci of rupture of the lateral portion of the common aponeurosis (arrowheads). b MR images show an hypertrophic soft scar (dashed circle). c MR images show a medial re-injury in the common aponeurosis (dashed arrow)
