A pilot study of scanning acoustic microscopy as a tool for measuring arterial stiffness in aortic biopsies
This study explores the use of scanning acoustic microscopy (SAM) as a potential tool for characterisation of arterial stiffness using aortic biopsies. SAM data is presented for human tissue collected during aortic bypass graft surgery for multi-vessel coronary artery disease. Acoustic wave speed as...
