    • Comparison of in-vivo and ex-vivo dielectric properties of biological tissues 

      Salahuddin, Saqib; La Gioia, Alessandra; Elahi, Muhammad Adnan; O'Halloran, Martin; Shahzad, Atif (Curran Associates Proceedings, 2017-09-11)
      Accurate knowledge of the dielectric properties of biological tissues are crucial for various applications such as assessment of specific absorption rate and safety of electromagnetic medical devices. Most of the ...

    • Comparison of radar-based microwave imaging algorithms applied to experimental breast phantoms 

      Elahi, Muhammad Adnan; Lavoie, B. R.; Porter, Emily; Glavin, Martin; Jones, E.; Fear, E. C.; O'Halloran, Martin (Union Radio-Scientifique Internationale, 2017-08-19)
      Microwave imaging is a promising imaging modality for the early detection of breast cancer. The two most important signal processing components of a radar-based microwave imaging system are the early-time artifact removal ...

    • Dielectric properties of bones: A potential indicator for osteoporosis 

      Amin, Bilal; Elahi, Muhammad Adnan; Porter, Emily; Shahzad, Atif; O'Halloran, Martin (National University of Ireland Galway, 2018-01-26)
      Osteoporosis is one of the major bone disease that results into bone fragility and fractures. Approximately 300,000 people over the age of 50 years suffer from osteoporosis in Ireland. Osteoporosis is mainly caused due ...

    • An insight into bone dielectric properties variation: a foundation for electromagnetic medical devices 

      Amin, Bilal; Elahi, Muhammad Adnan; Shahzad, Atif; Parle, Eoin; McNamara, Laoise; O'Halloran, Martin (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2018-09-10)
      Dielectric properties of bones have recently got significant attention to monitor bone quality. This paper reports in-vitro dielectric properties of human trabecular bone samples obtained from osteoporotic and osteoarthritic ...

    • Investigating human bone microarchitecture and dielectric properties in microwave frequency range 

      Amin, Bilal; Shahzad, Atif; Farina, Laura; Parle, Eoin; McNamara, Laoise; O'Halloran, Martin; Elahi, Muhammad Adnan (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2019-03-31)
      Dielectric properties of bones are proposed to monitor bone quality. However, no study has investigated the relationship between bone dielectric properties and microarchitecture of bone, which is of paramount importance ...

    • Microwave bone imaging: experimental evaluation of calcaneus bone phantom and imaging prototype 

      Amin, Bilal; Sheridan, Colin; Kelly, Daniel; O'Halloran, Martin; Elahi, Muhammad Adnan (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2020-12-14)
      Microwave imaging (MWI) can be used as an alternate imaging modality for monitoring bone health. Evaluation and characterization of MWI prototype is a precursor step before in vivo investigation of bone dielectric ...

    • Microwave calcaneus phantom for bone imaging applications 

      Amin, Bilal; Kelly, Daniel; Shahzad, Atif; O'Halloran, Martin; Elahi, Muhammad Adnan (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2020-03-15)
      Microwave imaging can be used as an alternate modality for monitoring bone health. Dielectrically accurate, anthropomorphic phantoms play vital role in testing of imaging prototype prior to clinical applications. However, ...

    • Microwave thermal ablation: focusing energy in target tissue using fat layer 

      Bottiglieri, Anna; Farina, Laura; Shahzad, Atif; O'Loughlin, Declan; O'Halloran, Martin; Elahi, Muhammad Adnan (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2019-03-31)
      Microwave thermal ablation therapy is a minimally invasive technique introduced in the interventional oncology practice to treat a range of cancerous pathologies. Whereas satisfying results are obtained with the treatment ...
