Vidya Sarode, Priya M. Chimurkar, Alice N Cheeran . Electrical Impedance Tomography using EIDORS in a Closed Phantom. International Journal of Computer Applications. 48, 19 ( June 2012), 48-52. DOI=10.5120/7460-0526
Electrical Impedance Tomography is an imaging technique which images the resistivity distribution of the body. An alternating current is injected through the contact electrodes placed on the surface and resulting potentials are measured to image the current density distribution which is solved as Inverse Problem. The EIDORS (Electrical Impedance and Diffused Optical Reconstruction Software) is an open source software suite used for the reconstruction of Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) and Diffused Optical Tomography (DOT). This paper describes the EIT experiments conducted on a circular box phantom. Here a low magnitude current is applied in a neighboring current pattern and the boundary potentials are measured and the resistivity images are reconstructed using EIDORS for circular inhomogeneities used inside the phantom.
