English: Calcification deposits forming an enthesophyte within the Achilles tendon at its calcaneal insertion, in a 68 year old woman with pain and swelling by the heel, further pointing to the diagnosis of Achilles tendinitis. The Achilles tendon (seen as somewhat brighter than the surrounding soft tissue in this X-ray presentation) is wider than normal, further suggesting inflammation.
There is also an inferior calcaneal spur.
