Abstract
Methods and systems for diagnosing a chronic pain syndrome in a subject are provided. The methods and systems include approaches for identifying a diagnosis based on the vibrational spectra of biological samples.
Claims20
A method for diagnosing a chronic pain syndrome in a test subject, the method comprising:
- a. obtaining a vibrational spectrum for a biological sample from the test subject;
- and
- b. classifying the spectrum as representative of one or more candidate chronic pain syndromes.
A system for diagnosing a chronic pain syndrome in a test subject, the system comprising:
- a. at least one device configured to generate a vibrational spectrum based on a biological sample;
- b. one or more processors configured to execute one or more modules;
- and
- c. a memory storing the one or more modules, the modules comprising instructions for:
- i. obtaining the vibrational spectrum based on a biological sample;
- ii. calculating one or more scores assessing whether the test subject should be diagnosed with one or more candidate chronic pain syndromes from the output of a model, wherein the inputs to the model comprise the vibrational spectrum;
- and
- iii. providing the one or more scores.
