The effect of smoking on quantification of aortic stiffness by ultrasound time-harmonic elastography
Smoking is a significant cardiovascular risk factor that causes stiffening of the central arteries, especially the aorta. While vessel stiffness can be determined indirectly by measuring pulse wave velocity, elastography allows image-based determination of vessel stiffness while at the same time pro...
