Locating Nidi for High-Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation Smart Therapy via Acoustic Imaging of Lung Airways as a Spatial Network

High-frequency chest wall oscillation (HFCWO) therapy is one of the techniques to facilitate draining a patient’s lung secretion in pathological situations, and smart with HFCWO devices equipped multiple actuators can be achieved via locating nidi lung. In this paper, through developing novel acoustic spatial model utilizing imaging simulation, new effective method for assessing function presented, which links images pathologic changes. The structural similarity between reference image based on actual sound our airway impedance was by an index 0.8987, 1 as exact score. Simulation studies are used analyze practicality extreme design system resolution located nidus. For instance, practical sensor numbers 4 35 may recognize lower nidus length 73 mm better 22 mm. On other hand, more than 1000 sensors greater at under 10 Additionally, research utilized offer recommendations assess number sensing diameter current systems. Furthermore, geographic detection allows analyzing results.
