摘要
A four-shell head phantom has been built and characterized. Its structure is similar to that of nonhomogeneous concentric shell domains used by numerical solvers that better approximate current distribution than phantoms currently used to validate electrical impedance tomography systems. Each shell represents a head tissue, namely, skin, skull, cerebrospinal fluid, and brain. A novel technique, which employs a volume conductive impermeable film, has been implemented to prevent ion diffusion between different agar regions without affecting current distribution inside the phantom. Comparisons between simulations and phantom measurements performed over four days are given to prove both the adherence to the model in the frequency range between 10 kHz and 1 MHz and its long-term stability.
