About this scan

What is an Ultrasound Foot Right?

Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves — no radiation and no injections — to produce real-time images of soft tissues and organs.

An Ultrasound Foot Right allows your radiologist to examine:

  • Tendons and their sheaths
  • Ligaments
  • Muscles and soft tissues
  • Blood vessels (using Doppler ultrasound)
  • Nerves
  • Joints and surrounding fluid

Ultrasound is safe, painless, and radiation-free — making it a first-line investigation for many conditions of the foot right.
