The modulation transfer function in impedance imaging.
The concepts of the point spread function (PSF) and its Fourier transform, the modulation transfer function (MTF) are introduced to evaluate an impedance imaging system. The effects of some practical factors which should be taken into account in calculating the MTF are analysed. Experimental results from the groups in Sheffield, Barcelona and Toulouse are presented.
