Better Outcomes. Saving Limbs with Advanced Vascular Ultrasound

Cascade Ultrasound provides specialized consultation and training in pedal acceleration time testing — empowering clinicians to detect circulation issues early and help protect patients from limb loss.

At Cascade Ultrasound, we specialize in ultrasound training and consultation designed to support healthcare professionals in providing the highest standard of care. With a focus on vascular diagnostics, particularly pedal acceleration time (PAT) for detecting circulatory issues in diabetic patients, our mission is to empower clinicians with the tools, knowledge, and confidence they need to improve patient outcomes.

Expert Training

Our programs are tailored for medical professionals seeking hands-on instruction in advanced ultrasound techniques. From foundational skills to specialized vascular applications, we provide clear, practical training that can be applied immediately in clinical practice.

Clinical Consultation

We offer expert consultation services to help clinics, hospitals, and private practices implement or refine their ultrasound protocols. Whether you’re setting up a new diagnostic pathway or enhancing an existing program, our team ensures accuracy, efficiency, and compliance with best practices.

Improving Patient Outcomes

Early detection is key—especially for patients with diabetes at risk of circulatory complications. By integrating advanced ultrasound techniques such as pedal acceleration time, we help healthcare providers identify issues sooner, support preventative care, and ultimately improve patient quality of life.

Evidence from clinical Studies

In a 2024 clinical study, advanced duplex with pedal acceleration time predicted wound healing and limb salvage in over 80% of high-risk diabetic patients.

Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association

PAT may ultimately be the new noninvasive imaging gold standard to be used to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with critical limb ischemia.

Journal for Vascular Ultrasound

Pedal acceleration time provides a reliable alternative to ABI in patients with incompressible arteries, helping detect critical limb ischemia at the bedside.
