Abstract: The present specification describes a system for diagnosing or screening one or more pathologies in a patient. The system includes a headset with at least one microphone or accelerometer to passively receive vibrations generated by the cerebral vasculature of the patient's brain, computing devices coupled with the headset for processing the received vibrations to obtain a unique signal, and a signal analyzer to analyze the signal in order to determine if the data includes patterns uniquely indicative of at least one of tension headaches, migraines, depression, dementia, Alzheimer's disease, epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, autism, cerebral vasospasm and meningitis.

Abstract: The present specification describes a method for diagnosing if a patient is suffering from a stroke. The method includes: positioning a headset around the patient's head to passively receive vibrations generated by a cerebral vasculature of the patient's brain, the headset including at least one microphone or accelerometer; processing the received vibrations to obtain a signal; analyzing the signal to identify a pattern indicative of a stroke; and determining that the patient is suffering from a stroke based upon the result of a CT scan of the patient's brain and neck and the identified pattern indicative of a stroke.
