Background: Image reconstruction of magnetic induction tomography (MIT) is a typical ill-posed inverse problem, which means that the measurements are always far from enough. Thus, MIT image reconstruction results using conventional algorithms such as linear back projection and Landweber often suffer from limitations such as low resolution and blurred edges. Methods: In this paper, based on the recent finite rate of innovation (FRI) framework, a novel image reconstruction method with MIT system is presented. Results: This is achieved through modeling and sampling the MIT signals in FRI framework, resulting in a few new measurements, namely, fourier coefficients. Because each new measurement contains all the pixel position and conductivity information of the dense phase medium, the illposed inverse problem can be improved, by rebuilding the MIT measurement equation with the measurement voltage and the new measurements. Finally, a sparsity-based signal reconstruction algorithm is presented to reconstruct the original MIT image signal, by solving this new measurement equation. Conclusion: Experiments show that the proposed method has better indicators such as image error and correlation coefficient. Therefore, it is a kind of MIT image reconstruction method with high accuracy.

Magnetic induction tomography (MIT) is largely focused on applications in biomedical and industrial process engineering. MIT has a great potential for imaging metallic samples; however, there are fewer developments directed toward the testing and monitoring of metal components. Eddy-current non-destructive testing is well established, showing that corrosion, fatigue and mechanical loading are detectable in metals. Applying the same principles to MIT would provide a useful imaging tool for determining the condition of metal components. A compact MIT instrument is described, including the design aspects and system performance characterisation, assessing dynamic range and signal quality. The image rendering ability is assessed using both external and internal object inclusions. A multi-frequency MIT system has similar capabilities as transient based pulsed eddy current instruments. The forward model for frequency swap multi-frequency is solved, using a computationally efficient numerical modelling with the edge-based finite elements method. The image reconstruction for spectral imaging is done by adaptation of a spectrally correlative base algorithm, providing whole spectrum data for the conductivity or permeability.

Magnetic induction tomography (MIT) is a biologic tomography technology, which is to obtain the conductivity distribution by detecting the data on the boundary of the imaging area based on the eddy current principle. The small impedance difference between biological tissues makes the eddy current weak, and it leads to a direct effect on the biological impedance measurement and imaging sensitivity. A measured data standardization method is presented in this paper for enhancing the measured data sensitivity, and combined with the back-projection reconstruction algorithm to get reconstruction image. It is applied to a variety of measurement and the simulation experiment based on the calculation results of finite-element methods. The reconstructed images indicate that the method can improve the image resolution and sensitivity, and which provides an effective data standardization and reconstruction algorithm for the magnetic induction tomography.
