Measurement of pressure dependent variations in local pulse wave velocity within a cardiac cycle from forward travelling pulse waves by Rahul Manoj, Kiran V. Raj, P. M. Nabeel, Mohanasankar Sivaprakasam, Jayaraj Joseph

“…We propose a method to measure pressure-dependent variations in local PWV while minimizing the influence of pulse wave reflections. The PWV is computed from the pulse transit time between two forward-traveling pulse waveforms obtained across known path length, after measured/modelled flow-based wave separation analysis (WSA). …”
