SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND DEVICES FOR VERIFYING MECHANICAL COUPLING BETWEEN ANATOMICAL ELEMENTS

Abstract:

A device comprises at least one processor and a memory comprising instructions that when executed by the at least one processor cause the at least one processor to: generate a first signal that causes a vibration device to vibrate, the vibration device being in force-transmitting contact with a first anatomical element; receive, from a sensor, a second signal based on sensed vibration in a second anatomical element proximate the first anatomical element; and determine, based on the second signal, an amount of mechanical coupling between the second anatomical element and the first anatomical element.
