RESUMEN
A new methodology: the method and technical means for studying the coagulation of blood and the acoustic properties of other biological fluids (ultrasound coagulography) was developed. The complex of devices is based on the principle of measuring the rate of ultrasound in a medium studied by means of the impulse method. Arguments for the applicability of the method for studying the process of blood coagulation are adduced, special acoustic chambers were designed, and algorithms and computer programs for immediate processing of the data were developed. The field of application is biology and medicine: studies of the acoustic properties of biological fluids (e.g., blood coagulation), rheological properties, and viscosity of the object for the diagnosis of some diseases. The results of clinical assays of blood coagulation in healthy persons are presented.
