Embodiment Construction

[0028] Some details are set forth below to provide a full understanding of some embodiments of the present disclosure. However, some embodiments of the present disclosure may be practiced without these specific details. Furthermore, specific embodiments of the present disclosure are provided as examples and should not be used to limit the scope of the present disclosure to these specific embodiments. In some instances, well-known circuits, control signals, timing protocols and software operations have not been shown in detail to avoid unnecessarily complicating the description.

[0029] overall system architecture

[0030] figure 1is a block diagram of one embodiment of a system 100 that may be used to detect fluid changes in the human brain. Although this description generally focuses on the use of system 100 for detecting fluid changes in the brain, this or alternative embodiments of system 100 may be used to detect / monitor fluid changes in any other part of the body.

Abstract

A device for detecting spatial differences in fluid level changes in a tissue of a patient may include a support structure for securing the device to a body part of the patient, a processing element operably connected to the support structure, a wireless networking interface operably connected to the support structure and in communication with the processing element and an external computing device via a network, a first transmission module operably connected to the support structure and in communication with the processing element, a second transmission module and a third transmission module operably connected to the support structure and in communication with the processing element. When activated, the first transmission module transmits a first time varying magnetic field through the tissue of the patient. The second and third transmission modules, which are spatially separated from one another, receive first and second versions, respectively, of the first time varying magnetic field.
