Given the high rates of morbidity, disability and mortality from cardiovascular diseases in the world, there is a need to find clear and widespread introduction of methods of early diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases at the stage of pre-clinical le-sions. Therefore, introduction of new methodologies for assessing vascular stiffness to stratify cardiovascular risks and targeting therapeutic interventions is of great in-terest. This review deals with modern aspects of evaluation of local stiffness of the arterial wall. The authors introduce the data on diagnostic capabilities of ultrasound both in a standard B-mode and with the help of a new technique of echo-tracking. The article describes echo-tracking software applications and the parameters characterizing the local stiffness. The undoubted advantage of the described method is a capability of obtaining the results of measurement with the minimum dependence on user’s presets. The article gives the data on values of the estimated norms of the studied parameters for different age groups, on the dynamics of the parameters analyzed against the background of drug therapy. The article shows diagnostic and prediction value of the received parameters.

structural and functional properties of arteries, echo-tracking, atherosclerosis.
