Morton's neuroma scan. We can evaluate it through a plantar approach: thick skin, we need lower frequency transducers and therefore lower resolution. We can evaluate it through the dorsal approach, thinner skin and we can use higher frequency transducers with exquisite definition of anatomy/pathology. It is important to exert... show more
