It can be measured simply and noninvasively by measuring the carotid and femoral pulse pressures and the time delay between the two or by other methods relying on pulse-wave analysis. arterial stiffness measurement carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity clinical_measurement_ontology slaulede calculated pulse pressure measurement
