Abstract

A portable device for detecting a large vessel occlusion in a patient's brain by transmitting a signal into both sides of the brain and receiving the reflections of the transmitted signals to capture a single reflection data point of the characteristics of the blood vessels and brain tissue on both sides of the brain. Using the captured single reflection data point values to perform a comparative analysis between the right and left side of the brain, and based on this analysis, assessing whether the patient is experiencing a large vessel occlusion. If so, the device generates an alert.
