8.10 BRACHIAL ARTERY FLOW-MEDIATED DILATATION: DIFFERENT PATTERNS OF WALL SHEAR RATE INCREASE DURING REACTIVE HYPERAEMIA
Background: Wall shear rate (WSR) is considered an important stimulus for flow-mediated dilatation (FMD). However, its estimation by conventional ultrasound is challenging due to inherent difficulties of velocity estimation near the arterial wall. To evaluate how WSR influences brachial artery FMD,...
