Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The invention provides an acoustic sensor array which comprises a plurality of conformable sensor elements having first and second outer surfaces, the first outer surface being configured to attach to a subject such that the sensor elements are substantially conformal to the subject, and a carrier member releasably attached to the second outer surface of each of the plurality of sensor elements to hold the plurality of sensors in alignment during positioning on a subject, wherein the carrier member is disengaged from the sensor elements after the sensor elements are attached to a desired location on the subject without causing the sensor elements to move from the desired location on the subject. The invention also provides a method of arranging discrete sensor elements associated with a sensor array on a subject.
