P6.01 IMPLANTABLE PULSE WAVE VELOCITY SENSOR
In case of vascular weakness or thrombosis stents are implanted and brace vessels from the inside to assure the proper blood flow. A widespread method to monitor the state of blood vessels in terms of their stiffness and diameter is to measure the pulse ...
