摘要：
The present invention is a near-field microwave sensing modality that uses a single probe combined with a classification algorithm to help in detecting the presence of tumors in the human female breast. The concept employs a near-field resonant probe with an ultra-narrow frequency response. The resonant probe is highly sensitive to the changes in the electromagnetic properties of the breast tissues such that the presence of the tumor is gauged by determining the changes in the magnitude and phase response of the sensor's reflection coefficient. A key feature of our proposed detection concept is the simultaneous sensing of tissue property changes to the two female breasts since the right and left healthy breasts are morphologically and materially identical. Once the probe response is recorded for both breasts, the Principle Component Analysis (PCA) method is employed to emphasize the difference in the probe responses.
