Effects of age-associated regional changes in aortic stiffness on human hemodynamics revealed by computational modeling

Although considered by many as the gold standard clinical measure of arterial stiffness, carotid-to-femoral pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV) averages material and geometric properties over a large portion of the central arterial tree. Given that such properties may evolve differentially as a function of...
