Embodiment Construction

[0058] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments, which are explanations of the present invention rather than limitations.

[0059] The purpose of this embodiment is to realize the real-time measurement of the contact impedance of 16 imaging electrodes. For the 16-electrode brain electrical impedance imaging system, the data acquisition mode of "contralateral excitation, adjacent measurement" was adopted. The system has a total of 16 excitation electrode pairs, and each excitation electrode pair corresponds to 16 measurement electrode pairs, so a complete data collection includes 256 measurements, that is, a frame of data includes 256 measurement values. see figure 1 , figure 1 It is shown that the excitation current is injected into the cranium through the excitation electrode pair 1-9, and the response voltage signal on the measurement electrode pair 3-4 is measured. Due to the contact impedance between the im...

Abstract

The invention discloses a device and measuring method for measuring multi-channel electrode/ scalp contact impedance in real time, and belongs to the technical and application field of bioelectrical impedance imaging. The device includes a host computer, a main control unit, an excitation current signal generating unit, a boundary voltage signal measuring unit, an excitation channel, a measuring channel and a contact impedance measuring module. On the basis of an original imaging electrode, the device introduces a distal reference electrode. During the contact impedance measurement, a plurality of imaging electrodes are switched to contact impedance measurement circuits in order through an electrode channel control unit, and real-time synchronous measurement of boundary voltage data and contact impedance data can be realized through the electrode channel control unit. According to the method, accuracy measurement can be carried out to obtain information of the contact impedance in thefollowing two dimensions: 1, spatial consistency of the multi-channel contact impedance; and 2, time stability of single-channel contact impedance. Compared with a conventional measuring method, the measuring method of the invention is simple in operation and can carry out measurement in real time.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of bioelectrical impedance imaging, in particular to a device and a measurement method for real-time measurement of multi-channel electrode / scalp contact impedance. Background technique [0002] Brain electrical impedance imaging technology is a new type of brain functional imaging technology, which has the advantages of non-invasive, non-radiation, fast imaging, and long-term continuous imaging. The basic principle is: use the electrodes pasted on the surface of the scalp to inject quantitative and safe AC current signals into the brain in sequence, measure the response voltage signals on each related electrode at the same time, and reconstruct the image that can respond to the brain through a specific image reconstruction algorithm. An image of the electrical impedance distribution inside the brain. [0003] The brain electrical impedance imaging system includes multiple imaging electrodes, usually 16 electrodes or...
