Abstract :
Simulation experiment of breast cancer detection has been performed using an ultrashort-pulse radar. Breast models for the experiment are made from cooking oil or use a commercial made phantom. We measure reflection data in order to reconstruct images of the breast models with different dielectrics alien objects.
