Complex System for Monitoring the Patient’s Condition and Diagnosis of Bronchial Asthma

Abstract

In the present work, three versions of implementation of non-invasive bronchial asthma diagnostic system based on the author’s technique of noninvasive diagnosis of bronchopulmonary diseases are considered. The offered variants of diagnostic system can be used both in medical institutions and at patient’s home for the control of the patient’s condition with the purpose of monitoring the dynamics of the disease during treatment, as well as for preventive purposes. Three variants of implementation of the diagnostic system with various complexity are considered. The results of a radiofrequency scanning of a human chest phantom with included heterogeneity simulating the presence of sputum in the human chest is a consequence of bronchial asthma.
