Applications of Electrical Impedance Tomography in Neurology
Introduction: Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive technique utilized in various medical applications, including brain imaging and other neurological diseases. Recognizing the physiological and anatomical characteristics of organs based on their electrical properties is one of the main applications of EIT, as each variety of tissue structure has its own electrical characteris...
متن کاملStudy of the Boundary Element Method for the Direct Problem of Electrical Impedance Tomography
The main objective of this paper is to contribute to the development of a reconstruction method for the electrical impedance tomography (EIT) problem using the boundary element method (BEM). The idea is to adopt BEM to improve the performance of the solution of the direct problem. The EIT problem is generally formulated as an inverse problem and the approach to its solution consists in minimizi...
متن کاملExperimental Validation of Forward and Inverse Solutions for Electrical Impedance Tomography Using the Boundary Element Method
We report on the results of an EIT phantom study using an experimental tank with agar conductivity inhomogeneities, used to verify the accuracy of both a boundary element method (BEM) forward model and a non-linear inverse solution based on the BEM model. We introduce the shunt electrode model into the BEM equations for greater accuracy and derive the associated Jacobian for the inverse problem...
متن کاملA High-order Finite Element Method for Electrical Impedance Tomography
Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive imaging technique where a conductivity distribution in a domain is reconstructed from boundary voltage measurements. The voltage data are generated by injecting currents into the domain. This is an ill-conditioned non-linear inverse problem. Small measurement or forward modeling errors can lead to unbounded fluctuations in the reconstructi...
متن کاملApplication of a Hybrid Genetic/PowellAlgorithm and a Boundary Element Methodto Electrical Impedance Tomography
An optimization method based on a genetic algorithm (GA) and a boundary element method is applied to solve an electrical impedance tomography problem. The scheme is applied to reconstruct highly irregular shapes and to image and count objects inside a host medium of different impedance. A Pareto multiobjective optimization method is applied to improve the performance of the GA. Comparisons betw...
