ELIMINATING INTERFACE ARTIFACT ERRORS IN BIOIMPEDANCE MEASUREMENTS

摘要

A system for diagnosing the possibility of disease in one of a first body part and a second substantially similar body part by impedance measurements is described. The system includes an impedance module for calculating impedances of corresponding segments of the first and second body parts from current and voltage signals. The measured impedances are corrected to account for the effect of stray impedances arising from non-body part sources.
