Capacitively coupled impedance tomography for anatomical and functional imaging

To date, electrical impedance tomography (EIT) using sinusoidal excitation has been regarded as the most promising electrical imaging technique for diagnostic medical applications. However, the high impedance at the electrode-skin contact remains a significant challenge, hindering both the development and practical implementation of this technology. To address these limitations, an alternative approach utilizing non-contact electrodes and pulse excitation will be explored. This method will involve signal shape analysis to determine both components of admittance. Such data will enable the reconstruction of images depicting electrical permittivity and conductivity. Capacitively coupled electrical tomography will be investigated using numerical and physical lung phantoms, with a focus on regional ventilation distribution. Key metrics such as measurement sensitivity, contrast, and spatial-temporal resolution of the resulting images will be evaluated. Non-linear iterative algorithms and deep learning techniques will be employed for image reconstruction. Real measurements will be conducted using a simplified thorax phantom designed to simulate the respiratory cycle. A prototype flexible sensor incorporating surface electrodes will be developed, along with a mechanical-electrical lung phantom. Measurements will be carried out using the 32-channel electrical capacitance tomograph EVT4, which was designed and constructed at ZEJiM.
