    Import, process and visualize Sciospec EIT data in the open-source software EIDORS by taking the example of a standard phantom experiment

    Wednesday, 02 September 2020 by Paul Luutz

    From research targeted instruments like the EIT16 to fully customized OEM products for bioanalytical, medical and industrial applications Sciospec provides highly specialized solutions for electrical impedance tomography. Flexible channel configurations, frequency sweep modes, scalability up to several hundred channels and broad options for extension through sensor adapters, add-on modules and more make Sciospec EIT systems suitable for a multitude of ambitious applications.

    EIDORS (Electrical Impedance Tomography and Diffuse Optical Tomography Reconstruction Software) is a free software for EIT image reconstruction and processing. EIDORS is based on MATLAB, but also works with the free open source alternative Octave and is broadly used and supported by the academic community and EIT experts worldwide. The Sciospec EIT16 – 16 channel EIT device – is a full featured high bandwidth EIT system for ambitious research applications. The EIT data generated using a Sciospec EIT system, like the EIT16, and corresponding Sciospec software can be imported, processed and visualized in the Matlab based free software EIDORS. Sciospec provides appropriate Matlab code examples and guidance to help you getting started with this constellation. This Application Note demonstrates how to import and perform EIT image reconstruction in EIDORS using the Matlab code provided by Sciospec. Some sample data were generated in a standard phantom experiment using the Sciospec EIT16 and corresponding Sciospec software.

    A Fidelity-Embedded Regularization Method for Robust Electrical Impedance Tomography

    Tuesday, 23 June 2020 by Paul Luutz

    Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) provides functional images of an electrical conductivity distribution inside the human body. Since the 1980s, many potential clinical applications have arisen using inexpensive portable EIT devices. EIT acquires multiple trans-impedance measurements across the body from an array of surface electrodes around a chosen imaging slice. The conductivity image reconstruction from the measured data is a fundamentally ill-posed inverse problem notoriously vulnerable to measurement noise and artifacts. Most available methods invert the ill-conditioned sensitivity or the Jacobian matrix using a regularized least-squares data-fitting technique. Their performances rely on the regularization parameter, which controls the trade-off between fidelity and robustness. For clinical applications of EIT, it would be desirable to develop a method achieving consistent performance over various uncertain data, regardless of the choice of the regularization parameter. Based on the analysis of the structure of the Jacobian matrix, we propose a fidelity-embedded regularization (FER) method and a motion artifact reduction filter. Incorporating the Jacobian matrix in the regularization process, the new FER method with the motion artifact reduction filter offers stable reconstructions of high-fidelity images from noisy data by taking a very large regularization parameter value. The proposed method showed practical merits in experimental studies of chest EIT imaging.

    Human lung EIT experiment

    Monday, 04 May 2020 by Paul Luutz

    We reconstructed conductivity changes of human lungs caused by breathing. “The Principal Component Analysis Based Local Reconstruction Method” was applied for lung EIT. Own Matlab GUI was developed which loads .txt data file exported from the Sciospec EIT16 device.
    The main idea was to extract lung data from the measured data and to find the corresponding lung region. Low-pass filter and PCA were used which can be considered as machine learning techniques. The standard sensitivity method with Tikhonov regularization was used for reconstruction on the local region with the extracted data

    Frequency-difference phantom experiment

    Tuesday, 28 April 2020 by Paul Luutz

    The goal is to discriminate admittivity anomaly from background which consists of high-contrast materials. To remove the influence of the inhomogeneous background, linear combinations of multi-frequency EIT (mfEIT) data are used to produce contrast images.
    Multiple backgrounds subtraction method is used for the linear combinations of mfEIT data.

    Time-difference phantom experiment

    Monday, 27 April 2020 by Paul Luutz

    Time-difference EIT(tdEIT) is to recover the time change of conductivity distribution using the time change of voltage data.
    User made java GUI can control Sciospec EIT device to perform tdEIT experiments.
    To perform tdEIT, we put insulating glass in the circular saline tank. The reference voltage data is measured in the absence of the glass. The author made reconstruction algorithm is used to locate the position of the glass.

    Electrical impedance tomography and new insights

    Friday, 07 August 2015 by SebastianWegner

    An algorithm for 2D-EIT created in MATLAB® is introduced and described in [2, chap. 5], which is used to improve the quality of the cross-sectional reconstructions and to increase the temporal resolution of the method by one order of magnitude.

    The different behavior of an electrical potential in two-dimensional and three-dimensional case is exploited. The idea is first tested and verified by experimental data. The new measuring system “Sciospec EIT 16” from Sciospec Scientific Instruments GmbH is used for measurements. For a possible use in teaching the algorithms-source texts are slim and are available to the public.

    The results presented could be used for industry, e.g. in the field of application of extrusion methods for monitoring melting or mixing processes.
