Abstract

Flow dynamic measurement in cardiovascular systems usually refers to the measurement of the time dependent pressure, blood flow velocity, and the volumetric flow rates. Generally, flow dynamic measurements in cardiovascular systems are rather difficult. This is not only because that the flow is basically unsteady, but also the physical frame of reference is always moving. During the past decades, various types of flow measurement instruments have been designed and developed. Among which, laser Doppler anemometer (LDA) has been one of the most favorite tool in laboratory studies.
