Summary |
A carotid atherosclerosis detector bases on ultrasound technology, measuring the pulse wave velocity of the carotid arteryassessing the degree of stiffness, for the diagnosisprevention of cardiovascularcerebrovascular diseases. |
Scientific Breakthrough |
"1.Unlike the mainstream machines in the market, our system uses ultrasound technology to measure the carotid PWV (Pulse Wave Velocity)instead of the global PWV.
2. The functions of our system is simplified, which makes it easy to userun faster."
|
Industrial Applicability |
"1. For diagnosisprevention of cardiovascularcerebrovascular diseases.
2.There is no restrictions for the system on the place of use,it is applicable to hospitals, clinics, communitieseven families."
