Overview
Organization: National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute
Start Date: 05/2024
End Date: Ongoing
Primary Goal: Goal 4: Increase and sustain research to better understand the prevention, pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment, and management of COPD.
Secondary Goal(s):
Objective(s):
- Help expand, coordinate, and optimize COPD research efforts
Collaboration: Indiana University Indianapolis
Activity Type: Research
Activity Description
There is an important and growing need for tele-health solutions for the diagnosis and management of chronic respiratory diseases such as asthma, COPD, or cystic fibrosis. This proposal will develop a highly innovative, non-invasive, smartphone-based ultrasonic technology to aid in disease diagnosis and in remotely monitoring lung function and airway obstruction.Audience
