Abstract :
We are developing a THz imager system to identify the tumors such as in vivo and in vitro detection. THECAMAP (terahertz camera for medical applications) system will design to allow a real time detection of the reflected THz radiation by the MUT (material under test) and to provide a high sensitivity and spatial resolution.
