Identifying the contrast of dielectric properties of normal and cancerous lung tissues is significant in microwave imaging because it is used in reconstructing the image either in radar-based or tomographic imaging techniques. In microwave imaging measurement from past researchers are highlighted in order to identify the optimum distance of the antenna from the human thorax and the significant size of the tumour that can be detectable.","PeriodicalId":408922,"journal":{"name":"THE 2ND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON APPLIED PHOTONICS AND ELECTRONICS 2019 (InCAPE 2019)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117147990","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
