Hydroacoustic methods applied to pulmonary oedema

Oceanography / Pulmonology

Unsolved problem

Pulmonary oedema and fluid density gradients in ocean layers are physically identical acoustic propagation problems. Pulmonologists have not applied oceanographic methods.

Vitacore angle

Cross-disciplinary framework applying oceanographic hydroacoustic analysis to pulmonary fluid detection. Derived acoustic propagation model for fluid-air interfaces in lung tissue.
