2 1/2D finite element method for electrical impedance tomography considering the complete electrode model

“…On the other hand, the main disadvantage of EIT systems is its poor spatial resolu tion specially compared with X-ray or MRI images. The resolution of EIT is reported as 10% or at most 15% of the electrode dimensions [9]; although it offers a good time resolution (25 or 50 images per second [9] depending on the EIT system, or even in recent literature it has been reported as 1000 images per seconds [18]…”
