AREAL BIOIMPEDANCE EQUIPMENT

S. Papezova

Abstract

The contribution shows the principle and construction of the areal bioimpedance equipment, which enables the evaluation of the dynamic course of bioimpedance in different parts of the body. The principle of the areal bioimpedance equipment is based on the measuring of bioimpedance by a four-electrodes impedance (resistivity) measuring method. The two-dimensional dynamic picture of the bioimpedance is obtained by tracing the bioimpedance in a rectangular net. The construction of the areal bioimpedance equipment issues of the realised experiments and measurements. The equipment enables the extension of the application range of bioimpedance methods not only for tracing the haemodynamic of the heart and big arteries, but also of the tissues and organs.
