The Magnetic resonance electrical impedance tomography (MREIT) is a new medical imaging method combining electrical impedance tomography (EIT) and current injection MRI technique. In this paper, we show the uniqueness in MREIT problem with an orthotropic conductivity under the hypothesis that the ratios of conductivities are known. Based on an effective numerical differentiation method and an a...

Battery impedance is essential to the management of lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles (EVs), and impedance characterization can help to monitor and predict the battery states. Many studies have been undertaken to investigate impedance characterization and the factors that influence impedance. However, few studies regarding the influence of the internal temperature gradient, which is c...

Electrical impedance tomography extends to the new and new areas of the medical diagnostics: lungs, breast, prostate, etc. The feedback from the doctors who use our breast EIT diagnostic system has induced us to develop the 3D electrical impedance imaging device for diagnostics of the cervix of the uterus gynecologic impedance tomograph (GIT). The device uses the same measuring approach as the ...

The paper describes the design of a four-terminal-pair impedance bridge developed at INMETRO. Originally devised to work as a quadrature bridge for deriving the unit of capacitance (Farad) from a resistance (Ohm) or vice-versa, it allows the comparison of impedances in general with outstanding accuracy and measurement uncertainties bearing some 10 /

We present a miniaturized impedance imaging system, developed for 2D imaging of cell and tissue culture. The system is based on 16 microelectrodes (5 microm x 4 mm). An equivalent circuit for four-point (tetrapolar) impedance spectra was developed and validated. The system uses an Agilent 4294A impedance analyser combined with a front-end amplifier for the impedance measurements. Human epitheli...

La0.67 Ca0.33 MnO3 thin films were investigated using nanosecond duration electrical pulses. It was found that strong (up to 30 kV/cm) electric fields significantly reduces the resistance of the film and shifts the peak in resistance vs. temperature dependence to higher temperatures. The results are discussed using a model based on fast spin and charge system response to electric field action o...
