ABSTRACT
The development of EIT is summarized based on the concept and advantages of the Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) from the following three aspects: multi-frequency electrical impedance tomography (MEEIT), induced current electrical impedance tomography (ICEIT)and magnetic induction tomography (MIT). The advantages of the developing methods are expatiated and compared with the traditional EIT . The future application trend of them is pointed out. EIT is one of the key projects of biomedical engineering today. It is an ideal medical imaging technology with enticing prospect.
ABSTRACT
AIM:To investigate the inhibitory effect of dihydro-?-erythroidine on nicotine induced-current in cultured superior cervical ganglion of neonatal rats.METHODS:Pneumatic pressure administration of drug and whole-cell recording techniques were performed to compare induced-current amplitude.RESULTS:Dihydro-?-erythroidine competitively antagonized nicotinic effect,and EC50 was about 0.015mmol/L.CONCLUSION:Dihydro-?-erythroidine is a competitive antagonist of nicotinic receptors in sympathetic neurons.
