Published in 2025 at "Journal of Foot and Ankle Research"

DOI: 10.1002/jfa2.70076

Abstract: Intrinsic foot muscles and the plantar fascia are crucial for foot health, which diminishes with age and conditions such as chronic plantar fasciitis (PF). Ultrasound (US) is an accessible and cost‐effective method for evaluating these… read more here.
