Arterial stiffening is associated with a number of known cardiovascular risk factors, including advancing age, increased systolic blood pressure (SBP), diabetes, hypertension, heart failure, myocardial infarction, and obesity. Many methodologies, both invasive and noninvasive, have been applied to the assessment of the stiffening of large elastic arteries in vivo, but there is no economically and/or...
More marginal results and complications occur as a result of knee ligament surgery than of other common surgical procedure. Long-term success rates of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction range between 75 and 90%. The goal of knee surgery is to restore the normal kinematics of the knee. If the tension is too high, the range of motion of the joint is restricted, resulting in abnormal stresses...
Blood velocity measurements in the skin of pigs are reported. Measurements were obtained using laser speckle contrast analysis with a multiple scattering correction. Laser speckle contrast analysis is a rapid technique for obtaining a velocity mapping of perfused tissue. Measurements of blood velocity in pig skin were obtained using a laser and a monochrome digital camera. Blood velocities were measured...
