| titleOfInvention | Method and apparatus for determining conditions of biological tissues |
| abstract | The present invention relates to a method of determining characterisitcs of biological tissues in humans and animals. In particular, it relates to determining the characteristics of tissues such as the lungs and airways by introducing a sound to the tissue, and recording the sound. The invention further includes an apparatus capable of such measurement. In a first aspect of the present invention there is provided a method of determining characteristics of biological tissue in situ, including: introducing a sound to the tissue at first position; detecting the sound at another position spaced from the first position after it has travelled through the tissue; calculating the velocity and attenuation of sound that has travelled through the tissue from the first position to another position; and correlating the velocity and attenuation of the detected sound to characteristics of the biological tissue. |
