Abstract
A patch including a fiducial layer, an adhesive, and a sensor layer. The fiducial layer having a surface adapted to secure to a portion of skin on a patient, wherein the fiducial layer further includes a plurality of fiducial markers having at least one of acoustic properties, material density, and proton content different from those of human tissue. The adhesive being disposed along the surface of the fiducial layer. The sensor layer removably secured to a side of the fiducial layer and positionable distal the skin of the patient. The sensor layer including a plurality of sensors evenly spaced from one another, adapted to be in electrical communication with the skin of the patient, and each adapted to measure at least electric field or impedance.
