Abstract
Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a new functional imaging technology, with the outstanding advantages of noninvasiveness, portability, and medical image monitoring. The functional lung imaging is the main application field of EIT, which can achieve real-time dynamic data of pulmonary ventilation and perfusion. This paper reviews some progresses of its fundamental research and clinical application in the common diseases of respiratory system such as acute respiratory distress syndrome, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pulmonary embolism, to offer support for the technological progress and clinical application of EIT in the future. Key words: Electrical impedance tomography; Functional lung imaging; Acute respiratory distress syndrome
