Abstract

Abstract: Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is an emerging imaging technology developed at the end of the last century, which has outstanding advantages such as non-invasiveness, non-radiation, smart, low cost and easy operation. This article reviews the development, principles and clinical application of electrical impedance tomography in diagnosis, decision-making of clinical management of acute respiratory distress syndrome. The article also provides suggestions for the future development of EIT in terms of more clinical research, improving technical accuracy, cost/effectiveness and training of staff.

Key words: electrical impedance tomography, acute respiratory distress syndrome, positive end expiratory pressure, prone position
