Recent Advances in Microwave Imaging for Breast Cancer Detection

Abstract EN

Breast cancer is a disease that occurs most often in female cancer patients.

Early detection can significantly reduce the mortality rate.

Microwave breast imaging, which is noninvasive and harmless to human, offers a promising alternative method to mammography.

This paper presents a review of recent advances in microwave imaging for breast cancer detection.

We conclude by introducing new research on a microwave imaging system with time-domain measurement that achieves short measurement time and low system cost.

In the time-domain measurement system, scan time would take less than 1 sec, and it does not require very expensive equipment such as VNA.
