This scan is to examine the ankle and foot for a range of conditions.

This includes the assessment of:

● Ankle joint
● The anterior, medial and lateral tendons
● The Achilles tendon
● Associated soft tissues
● Musculature
● Bursae (the fluid-filled sacs that reduce frictions between tissues)
● Small joints

This scan is performed by a local sonographer with diagnostic scanning experience. The ankle and foot scan can investigate the causes of ankle and foot pain, possible injury or inflammation of the tendons for conditions such as:

● Bursitis
● Tendinosis
● Degenerative changes such as arthritis
● Joint effusions
● Ganglions
● Tendon and ligament tears
● Neuromas
● Fibromas
● Plantar fasciitis

Referrals for scans can be made following a consultation with a GP who will discuss your needs and suitability for referral.
