A Diagnostic Comparison Study between Maximal Systolic Acceleration and Acceleration Time to Detect Peripheral Arterial Disease
ACC<sub>max</sub> proved to be more accurate than AT in detecting PAD, also in patients prone to MAC. While no significant difference was found between ACC<sub>max</sub> and AT in their diagnostic accuracy to exclude PAD, ACC<sub>max</sub> should be favored in the diagnostic work-up in patients suspected of PAD due to its superior ability to detect an arterial stenosis.
