Over recent yrs, I have picked up on more and more comments from clinicians using diagnostic ultrasound on its usefulness to help predict clinical responses to interventions for plantar fasciitis; certainly not that evidence based (yet), but none-the-less people are finding it useful clinically and anecdotally.

A couple of studies have started to look at this: Prognostic Value of Diagnostic Sonography in Patients With Plantar Fasciitis.
