Background,Motivation and Objective The feasibility of noninvasively measuring regional carotid artery stiffness by way of the stress-strain relationship was recently demonstrated in young normal adults in vivo(Khamdaeng et al.Ultrasonics,2012).In this paper,similar methods were used to assess the stress-strain curve and derive the Youngs moduli in young and older subjects to evaluate the sensitivity of this approach in assessing age-related wall changes.
