This week - an educational case rather than a quiz! No email quiz answer needed so rest your typing fingers!!
This 28 year old female patient presented with right sided achilles tendon pain of one year duration.

Stay tuned for next week's exciting conclusion - where an experienced technologist remembers a crucial lesson of MSK sonography and reveals once again how operator dependant ultrasound really is!
