The non-invasive functional tissue characterization for arteriosclerosis by artery wall motion analysis with time series high-speed echo images and continuous sphygmomanometer

Estimation of the viscoelastic properties of vessel walls using a computational model and Doppler ultrasound

“…(2) where P 0 is the diastolic pressure corresponding to the dilatation of the vessel at the rest position, r 0 . P 0 can be estimated in vivo using noninvasive techniques (Meinders and Hoeks 2004b) or through sphygmomanometer measurements (Nagakura et al 2001).…”
