3.2 LOCAL ARTERIAL STIFFNESS ASSESSED BY ECHO TRACKING IS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH AN INCREASED PULSE WAVE VELOCITY IN HYPERCHOLESTEROLEMIC RABBIT
Arterial stiffness (AS) is generally measured by regional arterial pulse wave velocity (rPWV) or locally by arterial distensibility. Although often used interchangeably, some studies show a weak correlation between these well accepted AS index depending on population. Thus, we aim to investigate in...
