Key result
Mathematical modeling suggests that the Arteriograph device measures brachial artery stiffness rather than true aortic pulse wave velocity, challenging its working principle.
This letter challenges the validity of the Arteriograph device for measuring aortic pulse wave velocity, suggesting it primarily reflects brachial artery stiffness.

Trachet et al. (2011) conducted a letter in Arterial stiffness. Arteriograph vs. Invasive aortic pulse wave velocity was evaluated. Mathematical modeling suggests that the Arteriograph device measures brachial artery stiffness rather than true aortic pulse wave velocity, challenging its working principle.
