Abstract

A diagnostic system comprising one or more stethoscopes and a diagnostic unit. Each stethoscope is used to pick up a sound, which is then transmitted in radio form via an antenna after amplification through an electric/audio transducer. The sound, after being received by the diagnostic unit, is compared in a computer for diagnosis of the symptoms. The result of the diagnosis is then transmitted through an antenna and received by the stethoscope for reference by its user.
