Abstract

A tomography device for electric impedance tomography in a measuring volume having at least two measuring ports. The object is to provide a tomography device that allows adaptation to an application with less effort and/or a greater number of measuring ports than the prior art. The object is achieved with a tomography device in that the tomography device has at least two measuring modules, that each of the measuring modules is designed to be controllable via the respective module radio device and module control device and, in each case has a module control device, a module radio device and one of the measuring ports, and the respective measuring port can be arranged at a freely selectable position on a perimeter of the measuring volume, and that each of the module control devices is designed to carry out measurements for electrical impedance tomography using the respective measuring port.
