ARTERIAL STIFFENING ACROSS MULTIPLE LENGTH SCALES

It is well established that aortic stiffness increases with age, and as a result of a number of risk factors including diabetes. Most quantitative measurements of arterial stiffness involve the use of in vivo techniques such as pulse wave velocity or ex vivo techniques such as tensile testing. Howev...
