  1. Application of Electrical Impedance Tomography for Imaging in Bio-Medical and Materials Technology Progress Report

  2. I. DETAILS OF PROJECT • Project Number :01-02-03-SF0024 • B) Project Title :Application of Electrical Impedance Tomography for imaging in bio- medical and materials technology • C) Project Leader :Farrukh Nagi • D) Period of Performance :18 months • E) Date of Commencement :December 2006 • F) Date of Completion :May 2008

  3. II. Description Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that has applications in the crack detection , medical field [1] and industrial processes. For instance,EIT has been used to image lung functions. Additionally, EIT has been used to determine pulp consistency, which can be integrated into a process control loop in the paper manufacturing process. EIT is based on the principal that different materials have different electrical properties. EIT imaging exploits these properties (i.e. impedance) to produce a cross sectional image in a non-invasive manner.

  10. Inverse Algorithm Problem Solving with FEM

  11. EIT -Simulation in Matlab

  12. EIT -Electrode Tank for Experiment Electrodes for connection with Hardware

  13. Multi-Channel Matrix Data Acquisition System Awaited....

  14. VIII. Problem Faced in Procurement of Data Acquisition Equipment : ~RM 44, 000 • Funds were not sufficient to make the purchase in May 2007 • Written letter to MOSTI, June 2007, for early release of funds for the purchase • Dec. 2007, No reply............ • Funds were made available by RMC-UNITEN from other resources • Jan 2008, restart the purchasing activity as the quotation expired and re-process the procurement formalities. • April 2008 – Agent of the Equipment ‘National Instrument’ is in receipt of supplying the equipment now

  15. IX. Request for Extension In Project Duration • Request for one year extension • Sufficient budget • Extension is requested to complete the Imaging • process from the purposely build electrode tank
