Abstract: The finite element analysis method was used to evaluate the forward problem of threedimensional magnetic induction tomography(MIT). The model of MIT measurement system was established by the ANSYS software. The Griffiths’s system was simulated to validate the reliability of the finite element method. The corresponding tests of simulation analysis were performed based on this model. The results were corresponded with the theoretical value and the Griffiths’s test results. The results showed that the method was suitable for solving the forward problem of threedimensional MIT measurement system, which provided the basis to the further study of MIT inverse problem and more complex measurement system design.

Key words: magnetic induction tomography(MIT), finite element analysis, ANSYS software, 3D simulation, biological tissue conductivity
