Hello,
Thanks for posting a query to HCM,

Is it your foot is injured or you are looking for tests to check foot circulation.

If you are concerned about the circulation The you have to get any of the under mentioned investigations.

Ankle-Brachial Index
Doppler Ultrasound
Treadmill Test
Magnetic Resonance Angiogram
Arteriogram
Blood Tests
Your doctor may recommend blood tests to check for P.A.D. risk factors. For example, blood tests can help diagnose conditions such as diabetes and high blood cholesterol.

If your leg is injured and concerned about the fracture then i suggest you to get a X-ray of the leg.

Any query do follow up.
Take care.
