Estimation of Carotid Artery Pulse Wave Velocity by Doppler Ultrasonography
Background: Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is widely used for estimating the stiffness of an artery. Various invasive and non-invasive methods have been developed to determine PWV over the years. In the present research, the non-invasive estimation of the PWV of large arteries was used as an index for ar...
