X-rays & Ultrasound Keeping Your Feet Happy & Healthy

Thousand Oaks Podiatry Imaging

Digital X-Rays & Ultrasound Services

In order to find internal foot injuries or confirm a diagnosis, we sometimes need to use diagnostic imaging. Performance Foot and Ankle is outfitted with a full diagnostic facility equipped with state-of-the-art digital x-ray and ultrasound technology.

Your podiatrist may order an imaging test for many reasons, including:

  • Assessing damage caused by arthritis
  • Checking for signs of infection or other bone and tissue diseases
  • Finding foreign objects (splinters, glass, etc.) lodged in the foot
  • Checking for signs of fractures or other injuries
  • Diagnosing the cause of foot pain
  • To assist with image-guidance during a surgery

Digital imaging technology allows us to store all test results in the computer so that they can be easily accessed by any of your care professionals that need to review them. Images can be enlarged and manipulated to allow for more thorough examinations. Digital x-ray imaging also further limits radiation exposure for the patient.

Contact our podiatrists in Thousand Oaks today if you need a foot or ankle imaging test.

Foot & Ankle Ultrasound

An ultrasound is a radiation-free imaging device that uses sound waves to create images of the body’s internal structures. Many people know of ultrasound for its use in pregnancy, but this technology is also used for diagnostic and surgical purposes.

Foot and ankle ultrasounds are often used in the diagnosis of:

Ultrasounds are safe, painless, and noninvasive. During the test, a gel will be applied to the examination area. A transducer wand is then rubbed over the gel. It releases soundwaves into the body which bounce back into the machine and are sent to a computer. The computer then interprets the received data as images that the radiologist can review.

Helping People Is our Passion & Purpose

Hear from Our Happy Patients
  • "Can't thank her enough"
    Dr. Gifford was very knowledgeable with explaining the cause of my heel pain and gave me a painless injection. She was very friendly and took her time with answering all my questions. Can't thank her enough because I'm back to my normal workout routine without any pain!

  • "I highly recommend this place!"
    The process was smooth and efficient from the start. After filling out "contact us" form on their website, I received a call within 30 minutes to set up my appointment. The staff was incredibly helpful and welcoming. When I arrived, I handed them the printed form, and I was seen almost immediately. Dr. Patel was fantastic—he took the time to listen to all my concerns, identified the cause of my issue, and provided a clear solution. He even showed me at-home remedies and offered tips on how to prevent the problem in the future, without making me feel pressured to buy any treatment products. He went above and beyond in his care. Overall, a great experience!

  • "They do excellent work and care about their patients."
    Going to performance foot and ankle. It's like going to your salon or Barber. Once you find a good stylus, you won't leave them. Doctor Patel and his staff are like that. My dad has been going to them for years he's 102 years old. They do excellent work and care about their patients.

  • "I highly recommend!"
    Dr. Patel and his staff were absolutely incredible! I was having issues with my foot for about 5 years and I had been to numerous doctors without success. Then I met Dr. Patel and I’m happy to report that my issue is now solved! So thankful and could not be happier. Everyone here is super nice, down to earth and they genuinely care about you, the patient, which was super important to me. I was very impressed with how they go about their business and I highly recommend!

  • "Dr Gifford and her team are communicative, caring and highly capable."
    Dr. Gifford and her team are amazing and I recommend Dr. Gifford without hesitation. She provided me with multiple options to address Achilles issues. I ultimately needed surgery and the results have allowed me to walk without pain and return to activities I had been missing. My incision site is imperceptible. Dr Gifford and her team are communicative, caring and highly capable.

  • "This is what medical care should be!"
    Excellent customer service, and thorough care. Dr. Patel was down-to-earth, knowledgeable, and skilled (my kind of doc). The office was clean, and well-run. Billing was smooth as well without any of the hiccups you get at other offices. This is what medical care should be!
