View source for Physics:Magnetic induction tomography

'''Magnetic induction tomography''' is an [[Imaging science|imaging]] technique used to image [[Physics:Electromagnetism|electromagnetic]] properties of an object by using the [[Physics:Eddy current|eddy current]] effect. It is also called '''electromagnetic induction tomography''', '''electromagnetic tomography''' ('''EMT'''), '''eddy current tomography''', and '''eddy current testing'''.

==Applications==
The method is used in [[Engineering:Nondestructive testing|nondestructive testing]] and [[Physics:Geophysics|geophysics]], and has potential applications in [[Medicine:Medicine|medicine]]. It is also used to generate 3D images of passive electromagnetic properties, which has applications in brain imaging, [[Biology:Cryosurgery|cryosurgery]] monitoring in medical imaging, and metal flow visualization in metalworking processes. Recently, [[Physics:Eddy current|eddy current]] sensors has been used to scan additive manufacturing for metal process layer-by-layer, producing eddy current tomography images. The company AMiquam is developping this technology since 2020.
