摘要:
A system and a method for diagnosing bovine diseases using auscultation analysis are disclosed. The system comprises a processor for processing auscultated lung sounds obtained from a bovine in the form of digital sound data detected by a stethoscope; computer coded instructions for manipulating the digital data through incorporation of at least one algorithm used to calculate a numerical lung score, a database and an user interface. The algorithm utilizes values of selected frequencies of the auscultated sounds. The database is for storing data reflective of diagnoses, treatments, and prognoses that correspond to a plurality of base line numerical lung scores; and the user interface is for displaying a spectrogram reflective of the auscultated lung sounds, and displaying the lung score as it is associated with at least one of a corresponding diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis.
