Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a bedside monitoring tool that noninvasively
visualizes local ventilation and arguably lung perfusion distribution. This article reviews and …

This review summarizes the state-of-the-art in electrical impedance tomography (EIT) for
ventilation and perfusion imaging. EIT is a relatively new technology used to image regional …

Purpose To evaluate the plausibility, stability, and interindividual comparability of the global
inhomogeneity index (GI) based on electrical impedance tomography (EIT). Methods The …

Objective: This review outlines the basic principle, in addition to validated and upcoming
clinical use of electrical impedance tomography (EIT). EIT generates functional tomograms …

Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive, radiation-free monitoring tool that
allows real-time imaging of ventilation [1–3]. EIT was first used to monitor respiratory function …

Objective To investigate whether electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is capable of
monitoring regional lung recruitment and lung collapse during a positive end-expiratory …

The assessment of the regional match between alveolar ventilation and perfusion in critically
ill patients requires simultaneous measurements of both parameters. Ideally, assessment of …

Continuous assessment of respiratory status is one of the cornerstones of modern intensive
care unit (ICU) monitoring systems. Electrical impedance tomography (EIT), although with …

Positive pressure ventilation is a radical departure from the physiology of breathing
spontaneously. The immediate physiological consequences of positive pressure ventilation …

Purpose The purpose of the study is to systematically review and summarize current
literature concerning the validation and application of electrical impedance tomography …
