MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611112992 A) filed by Chandigarh University on September 21, 2026, for Portable Ai-Enabled Non-Invasive Liver Diagnostic Device For Early Detection And Staging Of Liver Abnormalities.
Inventor includes Nivedita Sharma.
The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.
Abstract: The present invention discloses a portable non-invasive liver diagnostic device integrating miniaturized ultrasound sensing, bio-impedance sensing, embedded artificial intelligence, and wireless communication. The device acquires acoustic and electrical signals from liver tissue, conditions and preprocesses the signals, and locally analyzes extracted features using trained artificial intelligence models. The system generates quantitative liver health indicators including liver fat estimation, fibrosis staging, and a diagnostic confidence score. Local AI processing enables real-time operation without continuous internet connectivity or cloud-based computation. The diagnostic output is transmitted to a smartphone or tablet for visualization, storage, and reporting. The handheld configuration facilitates point-of-care, rural, remote, and home-based liver screening while reducing dependence on invasive procedures, bulky imaging equipment, specialized infrastructure, and highly skilled operators.
