Machine Learning of Ultrasound Data: Cardiovascular Parameters Detection Using Carotid Artery Measurements

Background &amp; Objective<br/>Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause for death globally nowadays. Pulse wave velocity (PWV), a marker of arterial stiffness, is an important predictor of CVD risk. In precedent work, carotid artery data was collected with ultrasound to estimate the PWV with a digital signal processing (DSP) pipeline...
