Ultrasound for Plantar Fasciitis - should we expect a Radiologist to be there or just a tech?

As the title says. May be getting an ultrasound for plantar fasciitis soon. Ultrasound does have one advantage in that images can be taken in real time with movement (from my understanding, fMRI is not available everywhere anyways).

Should we expect to see a radiologist when the exam is done, or just a technician? Can we request that the radiologist do part of the scanning?

Edit: I guess this also begs the loaded question - how often do Radiologists interact with patients?
