ABSTRACT:
A pulse diagnostic instrument of the present invention comprises a plurality of probes connected together and aligned laterally in series, with each probe configured for contacting a skin surface of a body limb adjacent an arterial vessel. Each probe includes a pressure sensor configured for sensing a pulse pressure of the arterial vessel and an electrically-driven pressure applicator, mounted to the pressure sensor, and configured for applying an external force through the pressure sensor to apply pressure against the arterial vessel through the skin surface during sensing of the pulse pressure.
