System and computer-implemented method for detecting and categorizing pathologies through an analysis of pulsatile blood flow

Abstract

System and computer-implemented method for detecting and categorizing pathologies through an analysis of pulsatile blood flow. The method has a pulsatile blood flow signal of a subject, extracting a set of features from the pulsatile blood flow signal; and categorizing a pathology based on the extracted features. The extracted features may be predetermined features or features learned through a machine learning algorithm. For the categorization, a classification or a regression algorithm may be used to provide an index or a value score as a biomarker. Additional static features of the subject may be used in the categorization.
