Myfootshop.com recently announced the addition of a new anatomy page on their web site that describes foot and ankle anatomy.

The anatomy images are clearly marked to identify anatomical landmarks of the leg, ankle and foot.

Dr. Oster stated that the anatomy page provides details of foot and ankle anatomy that can be used by students or individuals who have had a foot or ankle injury.
