    Abstract: In some embodiments, an apparatus for acquiring, processing and transmitting physiological sounds, which may include acoustic sounds from at least one organ in a biological system, may include a sensor for acquiring physiological sounds. Analogue signals representative of the physiological sounds are converted into an electrical output. The electrical output is converted to digital data. A processing unit processes the digital data in a manner selected by a user. A display device displays the digital data and can be customized by a user.

    Abstract: A heartbeat/respiration output device that includes a heartbeat/respiration extraction unit that extracts a frequency component caused by a micro vibration of heartbeat and/or respiration from a radar signal or an ultrasound signal reflecting off a body surface of a patient, a temporal change calculation unit that calculates an amplitude temporal change or a phase temporal change of the frequency component caused by a micro vibration of heartbeat and/or respiration, a sound signal modulation unit that performs amplitude modulation or frequency modulation on a sound signal having an audible band frequency based on the amplitude temporal change or the phase temporal change of the frequency component caused by a micro vibration of heartbeat and/or respiration, and a heartbeat/respiration output unit that outputs the sound signal after amplitude modulation or frequency modulation.
