Less than a week since it was released and my iphone application iStethoscope Pro has hit the
number 1 ranking in Paid Applications in its category (Medical Apps) of Apple's AppStore. My
cardiologist collaborators continue to be hugely enthusiastic.
I've just prepared a new minor release of the app - version 1.01. This will have a new "Medical Trial" Setting to enable users to automatically email their heart audio to the Medical School of the University of Minnesota Duluth. There a research group led by Glenn Nordehn will gather the audio and use machine learning to analyze the data, with the eventual aim of predicting heart conditions using software. In the meantime I'll be working on a related iphone app, designed to train users to auscultate and understand how to listen and read the spectrogram produced by iStethoscope Pro.
