P2.13 INVESTIGATION OF REGIONAL CAROTID MECHANICS USING ULTRASOUND SPECKLE TRACKING IMAGING (STI) AND THE INFLUENCE OF CAROTID AND AORTIC STIFFNESS, CARDIAC PARAMETERS ON CAROTID STRAIN

Objective: To investigate carotid strain and displacement and to assess their relations with arterial stiffness and cardiac systolic and diastolic parameters. Methods: Study population consisted of 40 healthy subjects (aged 17–38, median-22). All subjects underwent comprehensive transthoracic echoc...
