Optical microscopy is a well-established technique that has wide ranging applications for imaging molecular dynamics of biological systems. Typically, these applications rely on external temperature controllers to maintain or change reactions rates of these biological systems. With increasing interest in applying low power microwaves to drive biological and chemical reactions, we have combined ...

This paper presents an efficient algorithm of high-resolution microwave imaging based on the concept of generalized reflectivity. The contribution made in this paper is two-fold. We introduce the concept of non-parametric generalized reflectivity (GR, for short) as a function of operational frequencies and view angles, etc. The GR extends the conventional Born-based imaging model, i.e., singles...

conclusions in light of our findings, we concluded that ra function is severely diminished in adult patients with tof. it would play an important role in pathophysiological process of the right sided heart failure in these patients. results the myocardial velocities and deformational indices of ra free wall were significantly compromised in tof patients compared with normal subjects. there was ...

1. Introduction Microwave imaging is an electromagnetic (EM) inverse scattering application that has played an important role in various fields such as radar, remote sensing and biomedical applications. By subjecting the object under investigation (OUI) to microwave radiation, the measured scattered fields are used to produce images which are maps of spatial distributions of EM profiles inside ...

We present a technique for fabricating realistic breast phantoms for microwave imaging experiments. Using oil-in-gelatin dispersions that mimic breast tissue dielectric properties at microwave frequencies, we constructed four heterogeneous phantoms spanning the full range of volumetric breast densities. We performed CT scans and dielectric properties measurements to characterize each phantom.
