Abstract :
In this paper, we proposed a test-bed system that is constructed to detect the breast cancer. Through arbitrary breast model, we proved the performance of the fabricated test-bed system. Through the application of this microwave tomography technology, we will be able to use as the detector of breast cancers in a human body. By further study, the system will be modified and redesigned to be a clinical test-bed system finally.
