Abstract:
Described here are systems and methods for generating cardiac vibrational energy spectral (“VIBES”) heat maps from physical vibration data and cardiac cycle timing data measured from a subject. Quick screening for heart valve, cardiovascular, and/or cardiothoracic abnormalities can be provided based on an analysis and/or classification of the generated VIBES heat maps.
