摘要
In electrical impedance tomography (EIT) two-dimensional models continue to be applied despite their known inability to provide correct reconstruction. In this paper, a reconstruction algorithm that assumes a translationally invariant conductivity distribution is described, A more precise forward solver is obtained by taking off-slice currents into consideration. An appropriate sensitivity matrix is derived. Numerical evidence for the improvement in precision compared to two-dimensional reconstruction is given.
