Developed in 1992, the flow-mediated dilation test is now the most commonly used noninvasive assessment of vascular endothelial function in humans. Since its inception, scientists have refined their understanding of the physiology, analysis, and interpretation of this measurement. Recently, a significant growth of knowledge has added to our understanding and implementation of this clinically relevant research methodology. Therefore, this tutorial provides timely insight into recent advances and practical information related to the ultrasonic assessment of vascular endothelial function in humans.
血流介导的扩张试验于 1992 年开发,现已成为目前最常用于评估人类血管内皮功能的非侵入性检测手段。自问世以来,科学家们不断深入研究该检测手段的生理学、分析方法和解读方式。近期,该领域的知识迅速增长,进一步加深了我们对这一具有临床相关性的研究方法的理解和应用。因此,本教程及时介绍了血流介导的扩张试验在人类血管内皮功能超声评估方面的最新进展和实用信息。
