  • Abstract
    MIT´s (magnetic induction tomography) low-cost and noninvasive features can offer great excitement and potential to address many challenging problems that exist in the current industrial/medical applications. The foundation development of MIT has been made in the past ten years. Many more advancements can be expected in the next decade, including the first commercialized MIT system for industrial or medical application. It will certainly contribute some impact to the current imaging technology.
