Ultrasound Assessment

At Peninsula Foot Clinic, patients can undergo an ultrasound assessment of musculoskeletal conditions to aid in diagnosis and treatment planning. This service is provided by trained podiatrists at our Mornington clinic. The Podiatrist can perform this assessment in conjunction with a thorough physical assessment at the time of consultation – saving time and often more clarity around diagnosis. Some of the conditions suitable for ultrasound assessment include :

• Chronic plantarfasciitis/fasciopathy
• Achilles tendinopathy
• Tibialis posterior tendinopathy
• Osteoarthritis /joint pain
• Nerve entrapments
• Intermetatarsal bursitis…. And more

A clear diagnosis is necessary to ensure the right treatment approach, enabling patients to move well and return to full activity.
