Electrical impedance imaging of human muscle at the microscopic scale using a multi-electrode needle device: A simulation study

Developments in imaging techniques over the past two decades have enhanced the diagnosis and evaluation of muscle disorders. Two of the most commonly used imaging modalities, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound (US), have received increasing attention in both clinical neuromuscular clinical care and research (Mercuri et al., 2007; Pillen et al., 2008). MRI has shown versatility due to its ability to assist in disease diagnosis, as a biomarker of disease progression, and as a tool to assess metabolic alterations (Kuo and Carrino, 2007; Andreassen et al., 2009; Ekstrand et al., 2012).
