Abstract. It is suggested to use the method of Electric Impedance Computer Tomography (EICT) for detection human lungs pathologies, caused by coronavirus COVID-19 by measuring electric conductivity of the lung tissue, in particular, the alveoli.

Keywords: electrical impedance tomography, medical visualization, coronavirus COVID-19.
