A New High-Resolution Spectral Approach to Noninvasively Evaluate Wall Deformations in Arteries
By locally measuring changes on arterial wall thickness as a function of pressure, the related Young modulus can be evaluated. This physical magnitude has shown to be an important predictive factor for cardiovascular diseases. For evaluating those changes, imaging segmentation or time correlations o...
