Functional analysis of the common carotid artery: relative distension differences over the vessel wall measured in vivo

Objectives Absolute (ΔD) and relative (ΔD/D) arterial diameter distension, parameters related to the elasticity of the vessel, can be measured in superficial arteries using ultrasound-based vessel ‘wall tracking’ techniques. Currently available systems (e.g. the Wall Track System; WTS) measure the d...
