Electrical impedance tomography: Amplitudes of cardiac related impedance changes in the lung are highly position dependent.

Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is used on the thorax to measure impedance changes due to the presence of air and blood in the lung. This experimental study was performed to investigate the effect of posture on cardiac and respiratory related impedance changes.EIT measurements were performed o...
