Overview
Imaging findings on high-resolution ultrasound may help to find out or differentiate any soft tissue abnormalities from morton's neuroma. In 2000, a study was conducted in which ultrasound done on patients with morton's neuroma demonstrated to have 100% sensitivity, 83.3% specificity and 96.7% accuracy in detecting the location of morton's neuroma. Symptomatic morton's neuroma is at least 5 mm in diameter on sonogram. A presumed plantar digital nerve identified in continuity with the mass on ultrasound leads to an improved diagnostic confidence of morton's neuroma.
Other Imaging Findings
- Imaging findings on high-resolution ultrasound may help to find out or differentiate any soft tissue abnormalities from morton's neuroma[1]
- On ultrasound, a presumed plantar digital nerve identified in continuity with the mass leads to improvement in diagnostic confidence of morton's neuroma
- According to a study conducted in 2000, ultrasound done on patients with morton's neuroma demonstrated the following:[2]
- 100% sensitivity
- 83.3% specificity
- 96.7% accuracy in detecting the location of morton's neuroma
- Sonographic analysis of morton's neuroma shows that symptomatic neuromas are at least 5 mm in diameter on sonogram
