A hydrostatic finger cuff for blood flow property analysis is provided which includes an elongated substrate member having a pair of opposing long edges and a pair of opposing short edges. The hydrostatic finger cuff is configured to form a frustoconical shell when the ends of the cuff are overlapped and releasably connected together. The interior of the frustoconical shell conforms to the shape of the finger or thumb. One side of the elongated member has an inflatable member that has a pressurizable interior region. A tube is fixed to the inflatable member and is in pneumatic communication with the interior of the inflatable member inflatable to a maximum of no more than 60 mmHg. The inflatable member completely circumscribes the finger and provides substantially uniform contact across the entire length of a phalange.
