Microwave Breast Imaging With a Monostatic Radar-Based System: A Study of Application to Patients (2013, methodology): “Measurements are converted to frequency by weighting the measured data with the spectrum of a differentiated Gaussian signal, then transforming the resulting data to the time domain via an inverse chirp- transform [27].”
On the Opportunities and Challenges in Microwave Medical Sensing and Imaging (2015, methodology): “Qualitative (see Section III-B) Strong scatterer detection using radar techniques Confocal imaging [3] Tissue sensing adaptive radar [63] Space-time beamforming [62] Avoids inverse problem, computationally very less demanding Detection challenging in low contrast UWB Image of backscattered energy”
Radar-Based Breast Cancer Detection Using a Hemispherical Antenna Array—Experimental Results (2009, methodology): “To date there have been only a few experimental breast-imaging radar systems reported in the open literature [9]–[12].”
Microwave Imaging for Breast Cancer (2011, methodology): “It may then be suspended in a tank of coupling liquid [56], [57], or be slightly compressed between two plates [58], [59] as shown in Figure 4(b), or be placed in a constraining cup of suitable size and shape [60]–[65].”
