Claim 8:
9. A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon instructions for improved cardiac monitoring comprising executable code that, when executed by one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to:
receive image data from an image sensor configured for monitoring edema in a patient, wherein the image sensor comprises;
a light source configured to irradiate a tissue of the patient with light; and
a detector configured to collect reflected light from the tissue of the patient and generate the image data associated with the reflected light;

receive the image data associated with the reflected light;
calculate intensity values for reflected light;
determine whether the tissue exhibits symptoms of edema;
receive additional data from one or more additional sensors configured to monitor one or more factors related to cardiac activity of the patient;
fuse the received image data with the received additional data from the one or more additional sensors to generate a fused data set; and
determine a cardiac condition for the patient based on the fused data set.
