EIT Medical Imaging Device (Senior Design Project)

For my senior design project at UT, our team set out to construct a medical imaging device prototype using Electrical Impedance Tomography. Our aim was to design a prototype which could be made compact, portable, and simple for a non-technical end user (such as a doctor) to operate. The results had to be fast (at or near real time), accurate enough to be used for diagnosis, and simple for the user to interpret. This last requirement is crucial for emerging medical technology, as often medical imaging results require years of instruction and experience to reliably be used for diagnosis.
