Theory and performance of an adaptive current tomography system.

It has been shown that there exists an optimum set of current patterns for distinguishing one conductivity distribution from another. Since the optimum set of current patterns depends on the conductivity distribution being imaged it must be determined for each object being imaged. This paper describes how these current patterns may be determined and describes a system for achieving this in practice.
