title = "Measurement of arterial wave velocity with ultrasound",
abstract = "Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is widely used for estimating the stiffness of an artery. PWV is measured by the time of travel of the {"}foot{"} of the pressure wave over a known distance. This technique has a low time resolution and is an average measurement of artery stiffness between the two measuring positions. In this paper an arterial wave is generated non-invasively in the vessel wall by the radiation force of ultrasound. The wave velocity in the vessel is measured non-invasively by ultrasound with high time resolution over a short distance of a few millimeters.",
