Abstract

This paper deals with the design, implementation and performance of TIE-4sys, an electrical impedance tomograph. This instrument is a parallel broadband real-time system. It measures impedance using an array of 16 electrodes and reconstructs the images using a weighted back-projection technique. The objective of this development is to enable multifrequency EIT clinical studies to be undertaken. The system is capable of acquiring 25 frames/s and makes multifrequency cardiac-gated images. The frequency range is from 10 kHz to 250 kHz and the signal to noise ratio for the real component is better than 60 dB.
