1. A system for acoustic detection of coronary artery disease, comprising:

  • a transducer for detecting acoustic heart signals;

    a computer connected to the transducer, the computer executing software for detecting coronary artery disease by processing the detected acoustic heart signals, the software including;

    a first software module for identifying a diastolic segment of a detected acoustic heart signal for analysis;

    a second software module for editing the diastolic segment to produce an edited signal;

    a plurality of signal detection algorithms for processing the edited signal to produce a disease vector; and

    a classifier for classifying the disease vector; and

    means for indicating the presence or absence of coronary artery disease in a patient based upon an output of the classifier.
