Abstract EN
Microstrip antennas are finding a growing medical application in imaging, diagnosis, and treatment.
This paper presents a flexible microstrip antenna that can be placed in contact with the human skin.
The developed antenna is only 0.25 mm thick, has 32 mm × 31 mm dimensions, and −19 dB measured |S11| parameter at 2.45 GHz.
A specific application of the antenna in microwave breast imaging is considered.
Analytical results using simulation models and experimental results using skin phantoms are presented and discussed.
