Electrical Impedance Tomography potential sensitivity

The analysis of EIT phantom outline voltage measuring accuracy is carried out in this article. This accuracy is necessary for exposure of single inhomogeneity presence: "small" ( it's square is equal 3% of global phantom square), "middle" 08,5%) and "big" (19,59%) with different surface conductivity values of these inhomogeneities (background is phantom with surface conductivity s=1). Measuring was imitated by homogeneous phantom and phantoms with inhomogeneities voltage calculating and voltage difference computing (increment) between homogeneous phantom and phantoms with inhomogeneities. Inhomogeneities with bigger surface conductivity value than background conductivity value give significantly less voltage increments than inhomogeneities with smaller surface conductivity value than background. More sensitivity with closer position to phantom outline and bigger inhomogeneities size is illustrated by means of numerous increments values. Necessary measuring accuracy numerical assessments are proposed for considered inhomogeneities.
