DETERMINATION OF OPTIMUM INJECTED CURRENT PATTERNS IN ELECTRICAL-IMPEDANCE TOMOGRAPHY

1995-08-01
The problem of finding the optimum current under different constraints in electrical impedance tomography is cast into a non-linear optimization problem. Optimum currents are investigated for a two-dimensional cylindrical body with a concentric or an eccentric inhomogeneity under the constraints of constant dissipated power and constant total injected current. For a concentric inhomogeneity, it is shown that the opposite drive results in a better distinguishability than the cosine current pattern under the constant-injected-current constraint. The results for the concentric case are extended to the eccentric case directly using the properties of the conformal transformation and of the constraints involved. Distinguishability and the minimum detectable object size achieved by the optimized currents are compared with the ones achieved by the cosine current pattern for conductivity distributions with the concentric and eccentric inhomogeneity.

A FAST IMAGE-RECONSTRUCTION ALGORITHM FOR ELECTRICAL-IMPEDANCE TOMOGRAPHY
Kuzuoğlu, Mustafa; Leblebicioğlu, Mehmet Kemal (IOP Publishing, 1994-05-01)
In this paper, we propose a fast algorithm for the reconstruction of the conductivity perturbation DELTAsigma about a known conductivity variation sigma0. The method is based on the minimization of a quadratic functional subject to linear constraints, where the existence of a unique solution is guaranteed. The algorithm developed for this purpose is iterative and each iteration is composed of a simple matrix multiplication. The validity of this method is illustrated with several examples.
A METHOD FOR COMPARATIVE-EVALUATION OF EIT ALGORITHMS USING A STANDARD DATA SET

The point spread function (PSF) is the most widely used tool for quantifying the spatial resolution of imaging systems. However, prerequisites for the proper use of this tool are linearity and space invariance. Because EIT is non-linear it is only possible to compare different reconstruction algorithms using a standard data set. In this study, the FEM is used to generate simulation data, which are used to investigate the non-linear behaviour of EIT, the space dependence of its PSF and its capability of reso...
Two alternatives for magnetic resonance electrical impedance tomography: injected or induced current
Eroglu, Hasan H.; Eyüboğlu, Behçet Murat (IOP Publishing, 2016-11-01)
In this paper, the abilities of injected current magnetic resonance electrical impedance tomography (MREIT) and induced current magnetic resonance electrical impedance tomography (ICMREIT) systems to differentiate a conductivity perturbation from an otherwise uniform conductivity distribution are compared. The sensitivity of MREIT measurements changes as a function of distance to the electrodes used for current injection. The sensitivity of ICMREIT measurements is related to the radial location, being a min...
