Abstract
Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) tech- niques elaborate two dimensions images from average spatial distribution of resistivity within a three-dimensional structure. In the fracture and healing process of long bones, the limb has changes of bioimpedance values. This paper review varius works in bone electrical impedance and tomographic recon- struction, and proposes potential improvements for clinical applications of the current technology to apply in first emer- gency attention in difficult access areas (p.e.: mountains areas).
