  • Abstract
    The Sussex Electrical Impedance Mammography (EIM) Mk4 system has been developed for the detection of breast cancers in-vivo. The device uses a fully programmable planar array of electrodes, utilizing the 4-electrode method for tissue excitation and impedance measurement. This paper presents comprehensive analysis and methodology for reducing electrode contact artifacts.
