Abstract

A newly proven technique is non-invasive bio-impedance, and also known as Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT), which is used for medical or non-medical applications. EIT images are based on the internal distributions of the conductivity or resistivity from the boundary data, which depend on the voltage measurement of the stomach attached electrodes of the human body. An experimental study of the EIT system presented here has been used 8/16 surface electrodes configurations for the human body’s stomach. Then, according to the data acquisition methods of the EIT, the surface potentials of the stomach through the current injection were measured. For current pulses, a voltage-controlled current source has been created, and the created current source is a combination of voltage to current converter and current signal generator. Current positions and measuring voltages have been calculated using the designed control unit. However, the imaging algorithm requires sufficient data through the experimental work, which defines the cross-sectional image of resistivity. The cross-sectional image has been based on the Finite Element Method (FEM). It produces 2D/3D images, impedance distribution graphs and Mesh models. The proposed EIT system has been used for non-medical and industrial applications, which have non-invasive, inexpensive, radiation-free and a high potential for imaging modality.
