Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 影像與生醫光電研究所 === 102 === Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive approach to reconstruct the cross-sectional impedance image of the body. Many EIT systems and impedance image reconstruction algorithm have been proposed in previous studies. However, most of these EIT system is bulky, and this also causes the limitation of applications. In this study, a wearable and wireless EIT system was proposed to reconstruct the impedance image non-invasively and wirelessly. By microminiaturizing the conventional EIT system, the proposed system can provide the advantages of small volume and wireless transmission to improve the application limitation of the conventional EIT systems. Finally, the phantom experiment was tested to validate the performance of the proposed EIT system. The experimental results show the image quality of impedance image reconstruction obtained by the proposed EIT system is similar to other conventional EIT systems. Therefore, the proposed wearable and wireless EIT system can be viewed as a good system prototype, and may be applied in more clinical applications in the future.
