Arteriopiezogram
Definition
A graphic representation obtained from an arteriopiezography, recording the variations in mechanical pressure and pulse waves produced by blood flow within an artery during the cardiac cycle. This curved diagram allows a detailed analysis of vascular dynamics, arterial wall elasticity, and the amplitude of systolic and diastolic waves, offering valuable diagnostic clues in assessing aortic stiffness or other obstructive macroangiopathies.
