Session 08. Lung EIT
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is caused by the occlusion of the upper airway. No real-time imaging technique, which can detect such occlusion during natural sleep, exists at the moment. The surface electrodes were attached on the face and neck, and then changes in the conductivity image of the upper airway were successfully detected.
