| Abstract | A novel ultrasound (US) system has been developed to make possible the real-time assessment of both blood velocity profile and wall displacements in human arteries. The system consists of a modified US machine and a custom PC add-on board based on a high-speed DSP board. The software has been customized to make possible the simultaneous selection of two independent M-lines. In the B-mode display. With respect to the artery of interest, such lines can be set at optimal angles for wall detection and blood velocity detection, respectively. When switched to PW-mode, the system fires the elements of the linear array probe in such a way that US bursts are alternatively transmitted into one of the two selected M-line directions. Quadrature demodulated echo signals produced along both such lines are sent to the DSP board, which allows the corresponding blood velocity profile and wall displacement (or distension) waveforms to be calculated and displayed in real-time. From the velocity profile, the wall shear rate (WSR), i.e. the spatial velocity gradient close to the blood-wall interface, is extracted. The system has been preliminarily tested in the common carotid arteries of 11 healthy volunteers. Results of simultaneous diameter distension and WSR measurements are reported. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
