Holographic microwave imaging for medical applications
This paper presents a new 2D holographic microwave imaging array (HMIA) technique for medical imaging applications. The HMIA technique has been applied to early stage breast cancer detection and brain stroke detection. Computer models are developed to demonstrate the feasibility of detecting and localizing small brain strokes within a 2D numerical head model and breast tumours within a 3D numer...
متن کاملMedical Applications of Microwave Imaging
Ultrawide band (UWB) microwave imaging is a promising method for the detection of early stage breast cancer, based on the large contrast in electrical parameters between malignant tumour tissue and the surrounding normal breast-tissue. In this paper, the detection and imaging of a malignant tumour are performed through a tomographic based microwave system and signal processing. Simulations of t...
متن کاملApplications of gold nanoparticles for medical imaging
Background & Aim: Molecular imaging enables us to non-invasively visualize tissue microstructures and lesion characterization, allowing accurate diagnosis of diseases at early stages. A successful molecular imaging requires a nontoxic contrast agent with high sensitivity. Nowadays, a wide range of nanoparticles have been developed as contrast agents for medical imaging modalities. Here, we revi...
متن کاملComputational Methods for Microwave Medical Imaging
Medical imaging methods have become increasingly important in diagnosing diseases and assisting therapeutic treatment. In particular, early detection of breast cancer is considered as a critical factor in reducing the mortality rate of women. Within the various alternative breast imaging modalities being investigated to improve breast cancer detection, microwave imaging is attractive due to the...
متن کاملMicrowave Imaging and Emerging Applications
Active microwave imaging for biomedical has been proposed, studied, and implemented to varying degrees by a plethora of worldwide institutions for the last 30 years. Much of the interest has been based on the fact that tissue dielectric properties embody important information about physiological state and function. Early efforts concentrated on techniques involving classic techniques such as di...
