Abstract

A diagnostic system for monitoring changes in a medium is disclosed. The system includes a transmitter configured to generate and transmit a time-varying magnetic field into a medium responsive to a first signal. The system also includes a receiver positioned on an opposite side of the medium from the transmitter and configured to generate a second signal responsive to a received magnetic field at the receiver. The system also includes a processing unit configured to determine a phase shift between the transmitted magnetic field and the received magnetic field for a plurality of frequencies of the transmitted time-varying magnetic field.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to non-invasive diagnostic medical devices, systems and methods. More specifically, some embodiments of the present disclosure relate to devices, systems, and methods for monitoring changes in fluid in the brain or other parts of the human body using Magnetic Induction Phase Shift Spectroscopy ("MIPS"). Background technique [0002] In many different medical settings it would be advantageous to be able to detect changes in bodily fluids as they occur in a non-invasive manner. For example, it is often critical to monitor intracranial changes in fluids in patients in the intensive care unit. Standards of care for these patients include invasive monitors that require drilling holes in the skull and inserting probes such as intracranial pressure (ICP) monitors or microdialysis to measure chemical changes in fluid in the brain or "licox" probe. There are currently no commercially available non-invasive measurement techniqu...
