Lorentz Force Electrical Impedance Tomography [PDF]
Innovation and Research in Biomedical Engineering, 34 (4-5),
357-360, 2013, 2014 This article describes a method called Lorentz Force Electrical Impedance Tomography. The electrical conductivity of biological tissues can be measured through their sonication in a magnetic field: the vibration of the tissues inside the field induces an electrical current by Lorentz force. This current, detected by electrodes placed around the sample,
