Based on the equation of the propagation rate of pulse wave and on the presentation of the blood vessel as a hollow thin-wall cylinder a formula for estimation of the relative modulus of the vessel wall elasticity was obtained. The obtained formula makes it possible to improve the determination procedure of the mechanical properties and tonus of the blood vessels.
