A member asked:

How is the peroneal artery accessed during ultrasound? i found it odd the technician had my lying down with leg twisted in attempt to access artery.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Between bones: The peroneal artery can be one of the most challenging arteries to image in the leg below the knee. It is in between the two bones of the lower leg and the deepest from the skin.
