  • Abstract
    Microwave tomography is proposed for medical diagnosis using Magnitude Combined tomographic algorithm. A proof-of-concept experimental system was build and an in-homogeneous breast phantom with a tumor embedded was successfully reconstructed in less than 30 seconds per frequency. The motivation for this study is the future development of an imaging prototype for head imaging.
