Confocal microwave imaging for breast cancer detection: localization of tumors in three dimensions
TL;DR: The feasibility of detecting and localizing small (<1 cm) tumors in three dimensions with numerical models of two system configurations involving synthetic cylindrical and planar antenna arrays with image formation algorithms developed to enhance tumor responses and reduce early- and late-time clutter are demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhancing breast tumor detection with near-field imaging
TL;DR: In this paper, the main focus is on active microwave systems, in particular microwave tomography and confocal microwave imaging, and the main features of active, passive, and hybrid systems under investigation for breast cancer detection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microwave detection of breast cancer
Elise C. Fear,Maria A. Stuchly +1 more
TL;DR: A microwave system for breast tumor detection that uses previously introduced confocal microwave imaging techniques is presented in this paper, and the effectiveness of these skin subtraction algorithms is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Applications of RF/microwaves in medicine
TL;DR: The emphasis is placed on newer emerging diagnostic and therapeutic applications, such as microwave breast cancer detection, and treatment with localized high power used in ablation of the heart, and liver, benign prostate hypertrophy, angioplasty, and others.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental feasibility study of confocal microwave imaging for breast tumor detection
TL;DR: In this paper, the initial experimental verification of confocal microwave imaging for breast tumor detection is described. Simple phantoms, consisting of a PVC pipe and objects representing tumors, are scanned with resistively loaded monopole or horn antennas.
