Abstract :
A new auscultation system for the detection of the breath sound from the trachea was developed in house, and pulmonary function test results were compared with the parameters extracted from breath sound spectrum. Results showed that the peak frequency and integration value of spectrum revealed significant differences between normals and diseased patients
