Foot and ankle ultrasound

Musculoskeletal ultrasound of the foot and ankle allows us to perform measurements with submillimeter accuracy and precision of the damaged area. Therefore, ultrasound helps us to locate the damaged area reducing the margin of error, diagnose properly and immediately the pathology that you have in muscles, nerves, ligaments or tendons and thus determine the ideal treatment for you.

The main pathologies that can be observed through an ultrasound of the foot and ankle are plantar fasciitis and heel spurs, any neuroma formed in the area, such as Morton’s neuroma, metatarsalgia, tendonitis or tendon ruptures and syndromes, such as sinus tarsi.

Musculoskeletal ultrasound of the foot and ankle has multiple advantages such as:
It allows us to make accurate and immediate evaluations of the problem you present, so the diagnoses are more accurate.
Ultrasound is a completely painless technique for you.
An ultrasound is characterized by its speed, since it takes very little time to perform.
It should also be noted that it does not emit radiation that can affect the patient, so anyone, such as a pregnant woman, can have an ultrasound.
