Flow-Mediated Slowing as a Methodological Alternative to the Conventional Echo-Tracking Flow-Mediated Dilation Technique for the Evaluation of Endothelial Function: A Preliminary Report
The Moens-Korteweg equation predicts changes in pulse wave velocity (PWV) after changes in arterial radius; therefore, an increase in arterial radius, as seen in a reactive hyperemia (RH) condition, should slow PWV over a given arterial segment. If this assumption is true, then the deceleration of P...
