Antenna characterisation and optimal sampling constraints for breast microwave imaging systems with a novel wave speed propagation algorithm

Breast microwave imaging (BMI) is a novel modality that complements current breast screening tools. Microwave radar imaging creates a radar cross-section (reflection) map of the breast. The difference in permittivity between healthy and malignant tissue is between 10-50%. This contrast is significa...
