Research progress and prospect of electrical properties tomography for prostate - Abstract

We reviewed the research progress and prospect of electrical properties tomography for prostate in this paper.

After the introduction of the basic principles of electrical impedance tomography (EIT) and magnetic resonance electric impedance tomography (MREIT), we presented the applications of the two techniques in electrical properties tomography of the prostate in detail. We then discussed the application prospects of induced current magnetic resonance electric impedance tomography (IC-MREIT) and magnetic resonance electrical properties tomography (MREPT) in the diagnoses of prostate cancer.
