Bioimpedance method is based on measurement of impedance at separated current injection and voltage measurement electrodes. An alternative or variation of a method is proposed by usage of a floating conductive electrode. The principle relies on measurements of the (bio)impedance with and without usage of the floating electrode that should be placed close to the area of “interest”. The difference in measured impedance depends on the conductive properties of the area in the close vicinity of the floating electrode and thus enables analysis of the changes of the conductivity of this area.
