| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, we have tried to develop a novel imaging method, which combines bioelectrical impedance tomography and ultrasonography. This method can visualize information on both organizational structure and composition by compensating for respective faults in both imaging methods. To verify the proposed method, a simulation, basic experiments, and an estimation beef marbling score in live beef cattle were conducted.
As a result, we have developed a highly complete device for bioelectrical impedance tomography. However, we have not improved accuracy of impedance imaging yet based on boundary conditions obtained by ultrasonography. Our elemental technologies have progressed in these years so that we would like to continue the research and development to achieve our goal in the near future.
