Abstract
The article presents a study which observed the entire section of the brachial artery affected by the arm cuff compression during Korotkoff sounds (KSs) generation by leveraging the high spatiotemporal resolution of ultrafast ultrasound imaging (UUI). Topics include role of arterial wall motion in the generation of KSs, pulse wave and stethoscope signal, and wall velocity amplitude versus KS intensity.
