Hi All, I am working with injecting contrast/dye and measuring the resulting enhancement (resulting from the injection) in a patient. The injection is a square input (e.g., 20 ml @ 4 ml/sec for 5 sec). Now, I measure the resulting enhancement (OUTPUT) at a certain location. Now, this output is related to injection via the transfer function of the patient. so, OUTPUT = TRANSFER FUNCTION of patient (convolved with) INPUT Now, if we have to find the enhancement in the patient for an input of 4 ml @ 4ml/sec for 1 sec in time domain using the above data in time domain. In other words, how can I find the impluse response of the patient in the time domain using deconvolution. How do we do it in Matlab? Is there any Matlab function that can do this. Does this make sense? Thankyou very much for taking your time!! Best Regards, NU This message was sent using the Comp.DSP web interface on www.DSPRelated.com

The function is 'deconv'.
