Article Synopsis
  • Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a growing health problem, and scientists want to find easier ways to detect it at home.
  • Researchers studied a new method called frequency-difference electrical impedance tomography (fdEIT) to check for CKD using measurements from patients' kidneys.
  • Their findings suggest that using this home-based method can help detect CKD early and reduce the strain on hospitals and doctors.

Recent development of affordable, portable and self-administrable electrical impedance tomography (EIT) system demonstrated the feasibility of using standalone EIT and subject's anthropometrics to predict the gold standard spirometry indicators for lung-function assessment. Compared to spirometry, the system showed the advantage of providing spatial mapping of the spirometry indicators. Nevertheless, the previous study was limited to healthy subjects.
