Absolute (DeltaD) and relative (DeltaD/D) arterial diameter distension, parameters related to the elasticity of the vessel, can be measured in superficial arteries using ultrasound-based vessel "wall tracking" techniques. Currently available systems (e.g. the Wall Track System; WTS) measure the displacement of the media-adventitia transition (outer wall). We hypothesize that, given volume incompressibility of the vessel wall, DeltaD and DeltaD/D measured at the outer wall, significantly underestimate vessel distension at the lumen-intima interface (inner wall).
