A method for inferring characteristics of a physiological system includes measuring one or more physiological signals in the physiological system and inferring characteristics of the physiological system from the one or more measured physiological signals using a multiple vascular compartment hemodynamic model, the multiple vascular compartment hemodynamic model defining a relationship between the one or more measured physiological signals and the characteristics of the physiological system. When the one or more measured physiological signals include coherent oscillations at a plurality of frequencies, the method is termed coherent hemodynamics spectroscopy. The multiple vascular compartment hemodynamic model is based on an average time spent by blood in one or more of said vascular compartments and a rate constant of oxygen diffusion. |
