arterial applanation
Explanation:
Applanation refers to flattening an object by applying pressure. It is specifically used in terms such as "applanation tonometry" (for measurement of intraocular pressures) and "arterial applanation tonometry/tonometer" (for measurement of carotid blood pressure). Searching the above terms should find several appropriate matches. I have also included one link below.
