Relation of arterial stiffness and axial motion of the carotid artery wall - A pilot study to test our motion tracking algorithm in practice

Recently researchers have shown growing interest in axial motion of common carotid artery wall. The amplitude of the axial motion of the wall has been initially linked to arterial stiffness and the direction of the axial stretch has been noted to vary, although not highlighted in the studies. In thi...
