Abstract:
In this work we show the algorithms developed to extract the Cole parameters from multi-frequency EIT. With these parameters it is possible to obtain information about various different tissues and their pathologies. The algorithms developed obtain the Cole-model parameters from the real and imaginary parts of impedance, or using only the real part, without problems of convergence. A study of the influence of noise is performed with simulations. We find a correct solution in all cases with signal to noise ratio in the data higher than 40 dB. Finally, we show parametric images of the human abdomen obtained with these algorithms.
