The aim of this paper is to propose a useful method for exploring regional ventilation and perfusion in the chest and also separation of pulmonary and cardiac changes.The approach is based on estimating both electrical impedance tomography(EIT) measurements and reconstructed images by means of principal component analysis(PCA).In the experiments in vivo,43 cycles of heart-beat rhythm could be detected by PCA when the volunteer held breath;9 breathing cycles and 50 heart-beat cycles could be detected by PCA ...
