  ABSTRACT: To improve the identification of cardiac regions in Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) pulmonary perfusion images, a model of wavelet transform was developed. The main goal was to generate maps of the heart using EIT images in a controlled animal experiment using a healthy pig and in two human volunteers. The model was capable of identifying the heart regions, demonstrated robustness and generated satisfactory results. The pig images were compared to perfusion images obtained using injection of a hypertonic solution and achieved an average area of the ROC curve of 0.88. The human images were qualitatively compared with Computerized Tomography scan (CT-scan) images.
