Researches concerning a bioelectromagnetic laboratory for microwave radiometry

Abstract

During the recent years, the microwave radiometry has developed many devices in the medical area. The applications of the microwave radiometry in the biomedical area permit the detection of the hot structures which appear due to a specific pathology. The paper describes the measurements of electromagnetic noise temperature, inside a MSR (Magnetic Shielded Room) destined for bioelectromagnetic measurements, namely its applications in microwave radiometry, the verification and calibration of the radiometer, and a very simple simulation experiment on a tumoral structure in a breast phantom.
