[FMD]Flow Mediated Dilation, Measuring Vascular Endothelial Function, FMD

 

Flow Mediated Dialation !

FMD !

 

 

 

 

Increase blood flow

Shear stress on the endothelium is enhanced by increasing blood flow induced after the cuff occlusion and then deflation

 

 

Increase No

Shear stress induce endothelial cells to increase No production

 

 

Vascular dilation

No effect on vascular smooth muscle to induce vascualr dilation

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The endothelial covers the vascular lumen and has been recognized as an organ that responds to physical and chemical signals by producing some vasoactive substances.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The early detection of endothelial dysfunction(ED) is essential to intervene and prevent its progression as ED is considered as an initial step of atherosclerosis.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

System Advantage

- Assessment of changes in vascular fucntion

- As a predictor for future cardiovascular events

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

System Features

- H-Shape probe captures a long-& Two short-axis images simultaneously

- HYBRID-Arm is a probe-holding unit equipped with tracking system

- The alignment of the blood vessel images is automatic

- True maxium diamater is detected to calculate FMD

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

System Flow Chart

- Wrap the cyff on the forearm

- Set the probe on the upper arm

 

 

 

 

- Tap the center of two short axis images of the artery

- Measurement strat

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Application
