The influence of aortic stiffness on carotid stiffness: computational simulations using a human aorta carotid model

Increased aortic and carotid stiffness are independent predictors of adverse cardiovascular events. Arterial stiffness is not uniform across the arterial tree and its accurate assessment is challenging. The complex interactions and influence of aortic stiffness on carotid stiffness have not been inv...
