Diagnostic ultrasound has been found useful in measurements on 242 patients (304 feet) referred with symptoms consistent with a diagnosis of Morton's neuroma. Plantar foot pressure measurements showed that this factor was not associated with the condition. Nearly all neuromata occurred in the second or third web spaces with almost equal incidence and the inter-metatarsal spacing was significantly...
A total of 63 patients with symptoms suggestive of Morton’s neuroma were examined with high-resolution ultrasound. Forty intermetatarsal masses were detected in 36 patients and the corresponding inter-space was surgically explored. Thirty-eight intermetatarsal masses were confirmed histologically to be Morton’s neuroma whilst 2 were not. Ultrasonography had reliably localized all these masses as confirmed...
The Planscan system has been used to ultrasonically scan the feet of a control group of subjects and the symptomatic and asymptomatic feet of patients with plantar heel pain. The body mass index was found to be greater in the patient group, as was the thickness of tissue beneath the calcaneum in both the symptomatic and asymptomatic fect, the symptomatic feet revealing the larger difference. The compression...
In an attempt to assess the effects of 'Low-Dye' taping on the foot, eight patients (nine feet) with plantar fasciitis were studied using the pedobarograph to investigate changes in gait patterns. In addition, patients completed a questionnaire to assess symptom improvement. Significant changes between the untaped and taped foot were found in respect of pressure levels, areas under the pressure time...
