Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a new non-invasive, mobile screening method which does not use ionizing radiation to the human breast. It is based on the theory that cancer cells display altered local dielectric properties, thus demonstrating measurably higher conductivity values. This article reviews the utilisation of EIT in breast cancer detection. It could be used as an adjunct to mammography and ultrasonography for breast cancer screening.
电阻抗断层成像（EIT）是一种新型的非侵入性移动筛查方法，它不会对人体乳房使用电离辐射。其基于这样的理论，即癌细胞表现出局部介电特性的改变，从而显示出可测量的更高电导率值。本文综述了EIT在乳腺癌检测中的应用。它可作为乳腺X线摄影和超声检查的辅助手段用于乳腺癌筛查。
