A comparison of the Doppler ultrasound interpretation by student and registered podiatrists Maria Young, Ivan Birch, Chloe Alexa Potter, Robert Saunders, Simon Otter, Shahin Hussain, Jane Pellett, Nadine Reynolds, Sarah Jenkin and Wendy Wright Journal of Foot and Ankle Research 2013, 6:25 doi:10.1186/1757-1146-6-25 Quote: Quote: Background Hand held Doppler ultrasound machines are routinely used by podiatrists to assess the arterial perfusion of the lower limb.
