Abstract :
Microwave tomography (MWT) is a novel imaging modality which might be applicable for non-invasive assessment of functional and pathological conditions of biological tissues. This work was to assess the technical performance of the system in sensing physiological signatures within measured complex signals and to obtain initial imaging results in animal experiments.
