Comparison of Invasive vs Noninvasive Pulse Wave Indices in Detection of Significant Coronary Artery Disease: Can We Use Noninvasive Pulse Wave Indices as Screening Test

Various non-invasive techniques to assess the indices of arterial stiffness, such as augmentation Index were used previously to detect coronary artery disease (CAD). We studied two indices of arterial stiffness analyzed from pulse contour analysis—reflection (RI) and stiffness index (SI) both by non...
