  • Abstract
    Diffuse optical imaging of the peripheral vascular reactivity is implemented at the major arteries of the foot. Transmitted light intensities are recorded in response to vascular occlusions induced by pressure cuffs. These dynamic measurements promise to help identify various peripheral vascular diseases.
