<title>Computer assisted uroflowmetry diagnostic system</title>

Abstract

In this paper an original uroflowmeter (called Adalbertus) has been presented. The device draws the flow chart and measures the parameters of urine flow. It is used in urological surgeries as an assistance in diagnosis of lower urinary track diseases like Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH). The measuring track and its main part -weight sensor have been described. Also the way of uncertainty calculation is mentioned. An example flow chart has been shown and the achieved results have been compared with a commercial product.

The use of DTW method as an effective way of uroflowmetry data screening analysis

“…One of the ways of patient examination is uroflowmetry which can be treated as a non-invasive preliminary diagnostic method. Currently the devices used to measure the urine flow are usually based on strain gauge sensors [2][3][4][5]. It is possible to determine the urine mass by the voltage analysis in bridge circuits (e.g.…”
