Breast Biopsy Characterization Through Microwave Imaging Using MammoWave Apparatus

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaper

Abstract

Nowadays, novel microwave imaging applications in breast cancer screening are being investigated as an alternative technique to traditional mammography and recent tomosynthesis. In this context, MammoWave ® system shows great potential to identify breast lesions based on their dielectric properties. Dedicated phantoms have been used to test, validate, and characterize the system, but additional research is necessary for further studying in vivo dielectric behavior of tissues. For optimization and capability enhancement of lesions discrimination via microwave imaging, a set of different biopsied tissues has been collected to analyze their impact in a controlled environment. This paper highlights the potential of the microwave images obtained with MammoWave ® device to correctly identify different pathological samples through the analysis of different images’ features.
