Zusammenfassung
Background: Arterial stiffness measured by ultrasonic scan is an established quantity to estimate cerebrovascular risk. Many studies merely describing the association between mechanical vessel wall properties and atherosclerosis without an endeavor to explain the vessel wall's lateral extension as an origin of atherosclerosis physically. So the aim of our study was to develop an undemanding model of energy balance of common carotid artery and to validate it through M-mode ultrasonic measurements of vessel wall elasticity and examination of cerebrovascular risk factors. Consequently we attempted to discover physi…
