  • Abstract
    Advances in neuro diagnostics based on microwave antenna system in terms of a helmet including a set of broad band patch antennas is presented. It is shown that classification algorithms can be used to detect internal bleeding in stroke patients. The present presentation paper also address the challenges to deliver uniform target levels of hyperthermia under strict spatial and temporal parameters.
