Comparison of Ultrafast Echo With Echotracking

NCT01743352 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 57

Last updated 2015-10-02

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim is to compare a new technique for assessing mechanical properties of large arteries: the Ultrafast echo with the reference technique, the echotracking. This will be done by studying in parallel hypertensive patients and controls with both techniques and this will revisit old concepts of increased stiffness in hypertensive arteries.
