Abstract :
In this paper, microwave imaging technique for breast cancer detection is presented. The possibility to detect tumors of various dimensions and positioned in different locations (with respect to the breast itself and to the positions of antenna), employing the post-processing algorithm has been proposed with ultrawideband antenna terminals.
