Background:

  • Magnetic Induction Tomography (MIT) offers a non-invasive imaging modality.
  • Planar arrays are crucial for developing compact and efficient MIT systems.
  • Optimizing primary field suppression and sensor sensitivity is key to MIT performance.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the performance of a novel planar array system for MIT.
  • To determine the precision and sensitivity of the developed MIT sensor.
  • To evaluate image reconstruction capabilities using the planar array.

Main Methods:

  • Construction and evaluation of a planar-array MIT system with flux-linkage minimization.
  • Utilized 4 shielded excitation coils and 8 surface-mount inductors as sensors.
