Analysis of medical correlation models using ultrasound tomography and electric impedance tomography

Summary The main goal of the work was to develop a method for the fusion of images from two different measurement techniques. A project has been designed to integrate electrical impedance tomography (EIT) and ultrasonic tomography (UST) data. The next stage was to analyze the correlation between the EIT results and the occurrence of lower urinary tract dysfunctions and establish boundary parameters for visualization and segmentation. Additionally, the relationships between UST data and the dysfunctions were examined, which also required defining parameters for segmentation. The work also involves establishing standards and methods for the arrangement of measurement electrodes, which is crucial for the precision of both techniques. The proposed approach and results constitute an essential step towards implementing more advanced diagnostic tools to improve patient's quality of life by diagnosing lower urinary tract dysfunctions faster and more precisely.
