  • Abstract
    This manuscript presents results relative to the optimization of 3D impedance tomography reconstruction algorithms for execution on multi-core computing platforms. Speed-ups obtainable by the use of modern computing architectures and by an optimized implementation allow the use of much finer FEM meshes in the forward model, leading ultimately to a better image quality.
