| Research Abstract |
The rupture of atherosclerotic plaque leads to serious events, such as cerebral infarction and stroke. Therefore, it is important to assess the arterial dynamics to evaluate the vulnerability of plaque. In this study, methods for measurement of the arterial dynamics, such as accurate measurement of 2-dimensional motion of the arterial wall and a new method for imaging blood flow at a very high frame rate of 3500 Hz, have been developed.
