Abstract
Purpose: Arterial stiffness is a well-established marker for cardiovascular health assessment. Current methods rely on expensive imaging systems and specialised operators to perform local stiffness evaluation from the common carotid artery (CCA) and cannot be used for ambulatory monitoring in chronic disease management. In this study, we compare the performance of a novel accelerometric system, which performs ambulatory non-invasive CCA stiffness measurement, against an ultrasoundbased stiffness monitor.
