Abstract:: Abstract: Magnetic induction tomography (MIT) is a noninvasive and non-contact functional electrical impedance tomography technique for detecting the distribution of electrical conductivity in biological tissues. MIT has a good application prospect in medical imaging for its several advantages, such as good penetration, fast, convenient, low cost and noninvasive. The research of MIT includes system structure, sensor, forward problem and reconstruction algorithm. Herein the principle of MIT imaging is expounded; the research status of its reconstruction algorithm is reviewed; and the main reconstruction algorithms are summarized. Finally, the characteristics and application areas of various algorithms are analyzed, and the future research trends are envisaged.
