This study presents a new Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) prototype capable of using higher frequencies. This advancement enables detailed bio-electrical tissue characterization for improved medical imaging.

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Medical Imaging
  • Electrical Engineering

Background:

  • Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) is an established imaging modality.
  • Traditional EIT systems operate at lower frequencies, limiting detailed tissue characterization.
  • Higher frequencies offer potential for enhanced bio-electrical property differentiation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a novel EIT prototype tomograph.
  • To evaluate the feasibility of using higher frequencies (250 kHz) in EIT.
  • To demonstrate the capability of EIT for bio-electrical tissue characterization at elevated frequencies.

Main Methods:

  • Development of an EIT prototype utilizing two signal frequencies: 31.25 kHz and 250 kHz.
  • Implementation of technical innovations: separate electrode groups for current injection and voltage measurement, and parallel input channels.
