Abstract:
Breast cancer is the most common non - skin malignancy in women and a leading cause of female morality. A potentially important strategy for reducing this menace is the detection at an early stage . The invention of non-invasive and non-ionizing microwave technique, to reveal the internal structure of biological objects was a break through in the field of medical diagnostics. Electrical properties of biological tissues and their interaction with electromagmetic waves have direct impact on human life. This thesis focuses on theoretical and experimental investigations of active microwave imaging techniques for breast cancer detection.
