Dorsalis pedis artery pulse – on dorsal surface of the foot, running lateral to the tendon of the first toe; Posterior tibial artery pulse – posterior and inferior to the medial malleolus; Popliteal artery pulse – behind the knee, typically done with both hands
In human anatomy, the dorsalis pedis artery (dorsal artery of foot) is a blood vessel of the lower limb. It arises from the anterior tibial artery, and ends at the first intermetatarsal space (as the first dorsal metatarsal artery and the deep plantar artery). It carries oxygenated blood to the dorsal side of the foot. It is useful for taking a ...
The ultrasound equipment must be sufficiently high-quality to give a correct image-processing result, which can then provide invaluable information, mainly at the superficial level. It must be able to provide both color and Doppler imaging, technologies that developed alongside the development of ultrasound. Doppler measurements which trace the ...

The arcuate artery of the foot gives off the second, third, and fourth dorsal metatarsal arteries, which run forward upon the corresponding Interossei dorsales; in the clefts between the toes, each divides into two dorsal digital branches for the adjoining toes.
A Doppler ultrasound blood flow detector, commonly called Doppler wand or Doppler probe, and a sphygmomanometer (blood pressure cuff) are usually needed. The blood pressure cuff is inflated proximal to the artery in question. Measured by the Doppler wand, the inflation continues until the pulse in the artery ceases.
Fig. 4: MSOT of human vasculature. The handheld MSOT probe shown here to measure photoechoes from hemoglobin, allows more sensitive detection of small blood vessels than Doppler ultrasound already in the clinic. Different structures are indicated: ADP, dorsalis pedis artery; ATP, tibialis posterior artery; MH, medial hallux; DH, distal hallux.
