Vascular stiffness can be measured in an artery of the finger to assess vascular stiffness, which is a measure of arteriosclerosis in the aorta as well as in the rest of the body. An article published in the August issue of the American Journal of Physiology, documented the validity of this simple test in predicting arteriosclerosis even in the aorta!
Many MDs have been using this inexpensive, reliable, and readily available test in clinical practice for more than a decade. It is a very well suited test to screen for heart attack and stroke. For more information please visit doctorsaputo.com
