Abstract

Infrasonic auscultation apparatus including a probe with an infrasonic sensitive electroacoustic pick-up for picking up infrasonic acoustic energy emanating from an internal body part of a subject on intimate contact of the probe on the subject's bare skin at a location associated with the subject's internal body part, and an infrasonic auscultation processor for processing at least 50 % of the total infrasonic acoustic energy picked by the pick-up for determining a medical indication associated with the subject's internal body part.
