Abstract :
An effective approach to increase the image resolution in static electrical impedance tomography is proposed, in which the image with local high resolution is reconstructed by fine meshing only the impedance abnormal element in the finite element model based on a genetic algorithm. Experimental results from a laboratory phantom are presented
