Abstract: A fluid flow monitoring system is provided that has a processor utility which is connectable to an acoustic generator associated with acoustic ports and is operable for generating signals S0 to activate the acoustic ports for irradiating a region of interest with acoustic radiation of a certain frequency range centered at a frequency F0 and is connectable to at least one light output port associated with one or more light detectors for receiving light of at least one wavelength λ from the region of interest including light tagged by said acoustic radiation. The processor utility may be configured for analyzing the generated signals S0 and data indicative of the received light including light tagged by the corresponding acoustic radiation and determining correlation between the signals S0 and the data indicative of the received light, the correlation being informative of a measure of fluid flow in a turbid medium.
