VIBROARTHOGRAPHIC SIGNAL ANALYSIS OF BONE DISORDERS USING ARDUINO AND PIEZOELECTRIC SENSORS

Abstract

Bone disorder is a common abnormality in most of the human kind. This emerges with mild stiffness and later ends up with joint immobility. X-rays are the most commonly used means of visualizing the joint, but at times ultrasound and MRI are also used. The methods can be classified into invasive methods and non-invasive methods. Invasive methods are generally done through image studies which do not furnish information regarding the early disorders in bone joints and on the other hand study procedures are painful to the subjects. This work deals with a non-invasive method of early diagnosis of bone disorders. The VAG signals acquired on the surface of the suspicious bone joint are analysed using LabVIEW software which yields information regarding the bone disorders. The study can be extended for early diagnosis of bone disorders.
