Real time analysis of lung sounds.

This paper describes a real time system for the analysis of pulmonary sounds. The system performs various types of time-domain and spectrographic analysis. It is able to display time-domain waveforms obtained from microphones detecting lung sounds, their power spectra and a real-time linear prediction model instantaneously for the immediate identification of interesting features. Details of the system are presented with examples of clinical research carried out using spectrographic analysis.
