Abstract :
Microwave imaging (MI) is one of the most promising and attractive new techniques for earlier breast-cancer detection. The microwave tomography (MT) realizes configuration of multistatic multiilumination system and reconstructs dielectric properties of the breast by solving a nonlinear inversion scattering problem. We describe below ETRI 3D MT system and 3D MI reconstruction program. Here we demonstrate also examples of image reconstruction using our MT system.
