Comparison of Performances of Ag/AgCl Coating Electrodes and Pulverized Electrodes in Cerebral Application of Electrical Impedance Tomography / 医疗卫生装备

ABSTRACT

Objective To compare the performance of novel Ag/AgCl pulverized electrodes with conventional Ag/AgCl coating electrodes in cerebral application of Electrical Impedance Tomography(EIT).Methods Based on the EIT system developed by our group,raw data were measured on a phantom and an adult volunteer,with Ag/AgCl coating electrodes and pulverized electrodes,respectively.The performances of electrode systems were evaluated in contact impedance and two other figures(the high-frequency SNR,HFSNR;the low-frequency SNR,LFSNR).Results Ag/AgCl pulverized electrode plays a better performance in resisting noise and keeping stabilization.Conclusion Ag/AgCl pulverized electrode develops the needs of imaging and monitoring human brains in EIT more availably.
