This technology uses various methods to detect, track, and pinpoint inflammation in body subsystems by observing changes in tissue and physiological properties.

The human body comprises various subsystems, all of which can be susceptible to inflammation. Inflammation is not only a symptom but also an underlying cause for multiple chronic diseases. Hence, accurately identifying and tracking the evolution of inflammation is essential for effective treatment and disease management. The challenge lies in detecting inflammation across numerous diverse subsystems. Current methods often focus on narrow, domain-specific screening and detection, possibly overlooking other areas where inflammation might be present. Furthermore, these approaches tend to miss real-time tracking of inflammation, limiting their use in proactive disease prevention and intervention. These limitations highlight the need for a more comprehensive, multimodal approach that can efficiently detect, track, and locate inflammation.

Technology Description

The multimodal technology is designed to identify and monitor inflammation in numerous subsystems in the body such as the respiratory, sinus, laryngeal, articulatory, facial, and gastrointestinal systems. This innovation recognizes inflammation by observing modifications in tissue and physiological properties. It provides a comprehensive insight into the body's internal conditions, offering significant utility in various clinical settings. What differentiates this technology from others is its capacity to detect and track inflammation's precise position by scrutinizing fluctuations in tissue and physiological aspects under different subsystems. Rather than focusing on singular domains, this approach integrates multiple facets, providing a more holistic examination. This detailed and multifaceted view of inflammation could lead to better treatment strategies and, thus, improved patient outcomes.
