Abstract :
This contribution presents a selection of phantom and clinical results from a prototype multistatic imaging radar designed and built at Bristol. Complex phantoms are employed in order to approximate the difficulty in imaging breast tissue, however, even so, imaging in a clinical environment poses particular challenges.
