摘要
Ever since 1819, when Theophile Laennec first put a block of wood to a patient's chest in order to listen to her heartbeat, physicians have used auscultation to help diagnose cardiopulmonary disorders. Here the authors describe a novel diagnostic method based in music technology. Digital music-synthesis software is used to transform the sequence of time intervals between consecutive heartbeats into an electro-acoustic soundtrack. The results show promise as a diagnostic tool and also provide the basis of an interesting musical soundscape.
