Comparing oscillometric and tonometric methods to assess pulse wave velocity: a population-based study

AbstractBackground Oscillometric pulse wave velocity (o-PWV) represents an attractive, non invasive and non operator-dependent method to estimate arterial stiffness. Tonometric carotid-femoral measurements (cf-PWV),are considered the gold-standard for non-invasive aortic stiffness assessment. To dat...
