In this article, it was demonstrated satisfactorily that dynamic peripheral vascular ultrasound can be performed. Engaging the SitWalking™ System (Effortless Exercise™ & the SitWalking™ device) provided an unusual opportunity to obtain ultrasound results while subjects were actively engaged in an exercise regimine. In doing so, data showing increases of venous blood flow velocity in the femoral vein by 300% and in the femoral artery of about 40% in systole and 900% in diastole while treadling were reported.

The initial results were corroborated by Dr. Hope, who performed independent studies showing similar results. He then combined the data to improve the statistical value of the findings. In addition, he discussed the likely benefits of treadling on an ultra-low-resistance device.
