Validation of a Magnetic Sensor in Arterial Flow Recording, Compared With the Reference Method, at Various Peripheral Arterial Sites

Validation Study of a Magnetic Sensor in Arterial Flow Recording, Compared With the Reference Method (Echodoppler), at Various Peripheral Arterial Sites

About This Trial

The measurement of magnetic fields emitted by cardiac activity has already been studied in magneto-cardiography. To date, however, this technology has never been evaluated in the peripheral circulation. The magnetic susceptibility of iron in the circulating blood and the ionic currents in the blood stream generate a very weak induced magnetic current, which can be detected by the micro-sensor of the prototype investigators wish to study. Proving the validity of this prototype would make it a new diagnostic and even prognostic tool, non-invasive, less costly and more accessible than Doppler for screening peripheral arterial disease.
