Comparison of radar-based microwave imaging algorithms applied to experimental breast phantoms
(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 ...
Performance of leading artifact removal algorithms assessed across microwave breast imaging prototype scan configurations
(Elsevier, 2017-03-02)
Microwave imaging is a promising imaging modality for the detection of early-stage breast cancer. One of the most important signal processing components of microwave radar-based breast imaging is early stage artifact ...
Adaptive artifact removal for selective multistatic microwave breast imaging signals
(Elsevier, 2017-02-01)
Microwave imaging is one of the most promising alternative breast imaging modalities. Early-stage artifact removal is an important signal processing component of a microwave breast imaging system. In this paper, a monostatic ...
Microwave calcaneus phantom for bone imaging applications
(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, ...
Dielectric characterization of diseased human trabecular bones at microwave frequency
(Elsevier, 2020-02-07)
The objective of this study is to determine whether in vitro dielectric properties of human trabecular bones, can distinguish between osteoporotic and osteoarthritis patients' bone samples. Specifically this study enlightens ...
Microwave bone imaging: A preliminary investigation on numerical bone phantoms for bone health monitoring
(MDPI, 2020-11-05)
Microwave tomography (MWT) can be used as an alternative modality for monitoring human bone health. Studies have found a significant dielectric contrast between healthy and diseased human trabecular bones. A set of diverse ...
A feasibility study on microwave imaging of bone for osteoporosis monitoring
(Springer, 2021-03-30)
The dielectric properties of bones are found to be influenced by the demineralisation of bones. Therefore, microwave imaging (MWI) can be used to monitor in vivo dielectric properties of human bones and hence aid in the ...
An insight into bone dielectric properties variation: a foundation for electromagnetic medical devices
(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 ...
Comparison of in-vivo and ex-vivo dielectric properties of biological tissues
(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 ...
Dielectric properties of bones: A potential indicator for osteoporosis
(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 ...
