Noninvasive Assessment of Endothelium-Dependent Flow-Mediated Dilation of the Brachial Artery

Coronary atherosclerosis is characterized by an early loss of endothelium-dependent vasodilation. However, the methods of assessing coronary endothelial function are invasive and difficult to repeat over time. Recently, a noninvasive ultrasound method has been widely used to measure flow-mediated di...
