The measurement of sound transmission in human lungs has shown promise to reveal, by noninvasive methods, information about the structure of peripheral airways and lung tissue. The paper gives a detailed explanation of the instrumentation and testing methods developed to measure sound transmission through human lungs and thoracic structures in the 5-20 kHz frequency range and describes in detail experiments comparing the acoustic lung transmission patterns of four different subject groups. The experimental results are compared with those predicted by an acoustical model of sound transmission through lung parenchyma.
对人类肺部声音传播的测量已显示出有望通过非侵入性方法揭示有关外周气道和肺组织结构的信息。本文详细解释了为测量5至20千赫兹频率范围内通过人类肺部和胸部结构的声音传播而开发的仪器和测试方法,并详细描述了比较四个不同受试者组声学肺部传播模式的实验。将实验结果与通过肺实质的声音传播声学模型预测的结果进行了比较。
