A Tomographic Multistatic System for Biomedical Microwave Sensing

The use of microwave techniques for biomedical sensing and imaging is in continuous evolution, and the realization of accurate and efficient system prototypes is fundamental in bridging the gap between the algorithm development and its practical application. In this paper, a prototype of multistatic imaging system, mainly designed for the quantitative reconstruction of the dielectric properties of the human head for brain stroke detection, is presented and some experimental results, obtained by processing the acquired data with a nonlinear inverse scattering technique, are shown.
