The video talks about how the diagnosis of Parkinson's is made through a
neurological test, but it is not accessible in all countries and, in those where it
is, it is very expensive.
In this regard, the specialist in applied mathematics Max Little, created
various computer algorithms for voice detection with an effectiveness of
more than 80%. By vibrating the vocal cords, their position can be tracked
and thus vocal tremor, weakness, and stiffness in speech can be detected. To
do this, a digital microphone is used and the patient's "degree" of health is
calculated using software.To be able to do this test, all you have to do is call a
specific phone, the patient indicates whether or not they have Parkinson's
disease and a 20-second message is recorded, analyzed and, automatically,
they generate the diagnosis.
I think that differential tests help us rule out Parkinson's-like diseases, so that
we can carry out the correct treatment and have information on the
prognosis.I liked it because the process is very simple, a line is called from a
landline or cell phone; The user is asked if they have Parkinson's or not, then
they record a 20-second message, it is analyzed by experts and they instantly
give the diagnosis.This one, unlike other studies, is more practical and less
expensive, since the key is for people to have the means at their disposal and
save lives.
