Privacy-Preserving Automatic Collection of Acoustic Voiding Events.

Uroflowmetry is a non-invasive diagnostic test used to evaluate the function of the urinary tract. Despite its benefits, it has two main limitations: high intra-subject variability of flow parameters and the requirement for patients to urinate on demand. To overcome these limitations, we have developed a low-cost ultrasonic platform that utilizes machine learning (ML) models to automatically detect and record natural in-home voiding events, without any need for user intervention.
