Modular and Portable System Design for 3D Imaging of Breast Tumors Using Electrical Impedance Tomography

Abstract

This paper presents a prototype of a portable and modular electrical impedance tomography (EIT) system for breast tumor detection. The proposed system uses MATLAB to generate three-dimensional representations of breast tissue. The modular architecture of the system allows for flexible customization and scalability. It consists of several interconnected modules. Each module can be easily replaced or upgraded, facilitating system maintenance and future enhancements. Testing of the prototype has shown promising results in preliminary screening based on experimental studies. Agar models were used for the experimental stage of this project. The 3D representations provide clinicians with valuable information for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. Further research and refinement of the system is warranted to validate its performance in future clinical trials.
