Machine learning and classification algorithms are applied to data collected from an EIT system. The system is used with an anatomically accurate head phantom setup in a variety of situations modelling normal and haemorrhagic ...

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 ...

Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) is an imaging technique involving an electrode array positioned around the area of interest. Alternating current is injected, and voltage measured, between electrode pairs in a prescribed ...

A solid Tissue-Mimicking Material (TMM) with adjustable conductivity properties, which can be matched to those of biological tissue, is presented. TMM models of breast fat and gland matching the conductivity of real tissue ...

The finite element method is a numerical technique used to solve forward models for electrical impedance tomography. To date, realistic finite element models (FEMs) have been created for the head and thorax, but pelvic ...

The dielectric properties of biological tissues are important parameters used in the design and optimisation of electromagnetic-based medical technologies. Typically, these parameters are measured ex-vivo using the open-ended ...

The dielectric properties of biological tissues are relevant in dosimetry studies and in radio-frequency and microwave medical applications. Broadband tissue dielectric data is commonly acquired using open-ended coaxial ...

A number of emerging electromagnetic diagnostic and therapeutic devices are designed based on estimates of benign and malignant tissue dielectric properties at different frequencies and temperatures. Accurate tissue ...

Partial nephrectomy is preferred to total nephrectomy tor clinically localised renal cell carcinoma. In order to minimise the risk of local tumour recurrence after partial nephrectomy, ideally, the surgical margins of the ...

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 ...
