Abstract
A portable bioimpedance measurement device is useful to provide information noninvasively about patient health in both clinical and home environments. In this work, a handheld bioimpedance spectrometer was developed to realize measurements in the frequency range 5 kHz-1 MHz in order to measure the whole range of the -dispersion which includes the pathological status. The impedance range was chosen from 10 to 10 k for measurements of even low impedances which are important in special medical applications, such as lung edema.
