Abstract

A method of detecting a level of fluid accumulation in an internal organ of a subject is proposed, as well as a system for carrying out the method. The method comprises: providing at least one classifier trained to distinguish between two or more levels of fluid accumulation; acquiring an audio signal () generated by said internal organ; and processing, using at least one processor (), said audio signal () by: performing feature extraction to generate at least one feature vector from the audio signal; and assigning a fluid level from the two or more levels to the audio signal by passing the at least one feature vector to the at least one classifier.
