Abstract:Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death globally. Current CVD diagnostic tests fail to predict early cardiovascular events and assess the risk of developing early CVD. Researchers are actively looking for biomarkers for CVD prediction, such as blood pressure, arterial stiffness, and pulse wave velocity (PWV). Several population-based clinical studies suggest increased PWV is associated with increased CVD mortality. In this study, we propose using a high-speed camera to study PWV as a biomarker… Show more
