Objective To reconstruct the real conductivity images of 3D head model, and to detect brain lesion by means of electrical impedance tomography （EIT） technology. Methods In order to locate the pathological changes of head impedance effectively, a series of computer simulation were conducted on a finite element model and a realistic-geometry head model, and differential evolution algorithm was adopted to reconstruct the conductivity image of the head tissue. Results The proposed algorithm could accurately reconstruct the impedance of the head tissue and successfully detect lesion area presently. Conclusion The global optimization and evolution algorithm can be applied to EIT simply with good convergent and robustness. The reconstructed images show higher quality and are reliable.
