Magnetic Induction Tomography (MIT) is a non-invasive imaging technique used for dynamic monitoring and early screening of cerebral hemorrhage. Currently, there is a significant challenge in cerebral hemorrhage MIT due to weak detection signals, which seriously affects the accuracy of the detection results. To address this issue, a dual-plane enhanced coil was proposed by combining the target field method with consideration of the spatial magnetic field attenuation pattern within the imaging target region. Simulated detection models were constructed using the proposed coil and cylindrical coil as excitation coils, respectively, and simulation imaging tests were conducted using the detection results. The simulation results indicate that compared to the cylindrical coil, the proposed coil enhances the linearity of the magnetic field within the imaging target region by 60.43%. Additionally, it effectively enhances the detection voltage and phase values. The simulation results of hemorrhage detection show that the proposed coil improves the accuracy of hemorrhage detection by 18.26%. It provides more precise detection results, offering a more reliable solution for cerebral hemorrhage localization and detection.
