Pressure Dependency of Retinal Arterial Pulse Wave Velocity in the Rat

Pressure Dependency of Retinal Arterial Pulse Wave Velocity in the Rat

Purpose: The retinal vasculature provides unique in vivo access to the microcirculation and presents the possibility of measuring small artery (retinal) stiffness using pulse wave velocity (PWV). This study investigates whether retinal artery PWV (rPWV) has a blood pressure (BP) dependency. Methods...
