Abstract

Mechanopulseography and Biomedicine

Highlights

  • The cardiovascular system of higher animals and humans is a complex multifunctional network system of heat and mass transfer and exchange

  • The impulsive nature of blood flow, caused by contractions of heart, allots this system with unique features, which primarily characterize the movement of pressure waves called pulse waves (PW) or pulses

  • PW can be detected by fingers on large arteries, which allowed doctors of antiquity to create numerous tactile images and use them to transmit medical in-formation to students
