A thoracic electrical impedance tomographic system is a medical device used to monitor lung function in real time. It provides continuous feedback on ventilation by measuring bioimpedance across a cross-section of the chest during assisted or spontaneous breathing.
These systems typically consist of a mobile monitoring unit, connecting cables, and a specialized chest belt equipped with multiple electrodes. The device functions by applying a low-amplitude alternating current to the body and measuring the resulting electrical potentials to generate diagnostic data.
