Abstract

Breast cancer is a disease that occurs most often in female cancer patients. Early detection can significantly reduce the mortality rate. Microwave breast imaging, which is noninvasive and harmless to human, offers a promising alternative method to mammography. This paper presents a review of recent advances in microwave imaging for breast cancer detection. We conclude by introducing new research on a microwave imaging system with time-domain measurement that achieves short measurement time and low system cost. In the time-domain measurement system, scan time would take less than 1 sec, and it does not require very expensive equipment such as VNA.

用于乳腺癌检测的微波成像技术的最新进展。

乳腺癌是一种最常见于女性癌症患者的疾病。早期发现可以大大降低死亡率。微波乳腺成像是一种非侵入性且对人体无害的成像技术，它为乳房 X 线照相术提供了一种前景广阔的替代方法。本文回顾了用于乳腺癌检测的微波成像技术的最新进展。最后，我们介绍了时域测量微波成像系统的最新研究成果，该系统测量时间短、系统成本低。在时域测量系统中，扫描时间将小于 1 秒，而且不需要非常昂贵的设备，如 VNA。
