Magnetic induction tomography (MIT) is a tomographic technique capable of imaging the passive electromagnetic properties of an object. It has the advantages of being contact-less and non-invasive, as the process involves interrogating the electromagnetic field of the imaging subject. As such, the potential applications of MIT are broad, with various domains of operation including biomedicine, industrial process tomography and nondestructive evaluation. Consequently, there is a rich -yet

The fundamental principles of MIT are discussed, alongside the instrumentation and techniques necessary to obtain and interpret MIT measurements.
