Abstract
An apparatus for diagnosing arteriosclerosis of a living subject, including an inflatable cuff which is adapted to be wound around a first portion of the subject to press the first portion with a pressing pressure, a pulse-wave detecting device which detects a pulse wave that is produced from an artery of the first portion of the subject pressed by the cuff with the pressing pressure and is transmitted to the cuff, and an arteriosclerosis judging device for judging, based on a change of the pulse wave caused by a change of the pressing pressure of the cuff, whether there is an arteriosclerotic lesion in a second portion of the subject that is located upstream of the first portion in a direction in which blood flows in the artery.
