Caltech Team Develops First Noninvasive Method to Continually Measure True Blood Pressure
www.caltech.edu
Device uses sound waves to gather blood pressure data from blood vessels, monitoring the response with ultrasound.

Seems very interesting, pr burble aside. Wonder how close this is to a micro-sonogram if generalised ? Star Trek medical tricorder component material by my reckoning.

    I have been waiting for this!! The study was interesting in that you could use this to get multiple points from around the whole body and get more diagnostic data this way. Imagine seeing that there is too much blood pressure built up in a specific part of the body which is indicative of some kind of disease or encroachment if a tumor or something.
