Pulse can be felt and measured at different points of the human body. At any point in the human body, the pulse rate cannot be measured. There are some specific points where the pulse can be felt, which are called pulse points. There are a total of seven pulse points in the human body. The pulse points are the neck (carotid artery), the wrist (radial artery), behind the knee (popliteal artery), the groin (femoral artery), inside the elbow (brachial artery), the foot (dorsalis pedis and posterior tibial artery), the abdomen (abdominal aorta). At these points, the pulse can be felt, and the pulse rate can be measured correctly.
