A positive margin may result in an increased risk of local recurrences after breast retention surgery for any malignant tumour. In order to reduce the number of positive margins would offer surgeon real-time intra-operative information on…

This work demonstrates an application of near field indirect microwave holography for the detection of malignant tissues in the human breast in an effective way. The holograms are recorded by two directive antennas aligned along each…

New statistical methods were employed to improve the ability to distinguish benign from malignant breast tissue ex vivo in a recent study. The ultimately aim was to improve the intraoperative assessment of positive tumour margins in…

Conventional breast cancer imaging techniques are nowadays based on the use of ionising radiations or ultrasound waves for the inspection of breast areas. Nevertheless, these conventional techniques present some drawbacks related to patient…

Traditional breast cancer imaging methods using microwave Nearfield Radar Imaging (NRI) seek to recover the complex permittivity of the tissues at each voxel in the imaging region. This approach is suboptimal, in that it does not directly…

Timely diagnosis of breast cancer is an important task. This type of breast cancer is one of the most common diseases. The method of microwave radiothermometry is a promising direction for solving this problem. The method is based on…

The method of microwave radiometry is one of the areas of medical diagnosis of breast cancer. It is based on analysis of the spatial distribution of internal and surface tissue temperatures, which are measured in the microwave (RTM) and…

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an effective imaging modality for identifying and localizing breast lesions in women. Accurate and precise lesion segmentation using a computer-aided-diagnosis (CAD) system, is a crucial step in…

Characterization of microstructures in live tissues is one of the keys to diagnosing early stages of pathology and understanding disease mechanisms. However, the extraction of reliable information on biomarkers based on microstructure…

The initial detection and identification of suspicious lesions and the precise delineation of tumour mar-gins are essential for successful tumour resection, with progression-free survival linked to rates of complete resection. However,…

In this paper, an innovative microwave imaging (MI) approach for breast tumor diagnosis is proposed that employs a differential formulation of the inverse scattering problem (ISP) at hand to exploit arbitrary-fidelity priors on the…

Purpose: Accurately classifying tissue margins during cancer surgeries is crucial for ensuring complete tumor removal. Rapid Evaporative Ionization Mass Spectrometry (REIMS), a tool for real-time intraoperative margin assessment, generates…

Molecular and atomic imaging required the development of electron and scanning probe microscopies to surpass the physical limits dictated by diffraction. Nano-infrared experiments and pico-cavity tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy imaging…

Microwave imaging is emerging as a promising substitution diagnostic tool, for breast cancer detection. It has ignited the interest in the interaction of the microwaves with biological tissues and their respective effects on the human body…

High-resolution chemical imaging within deep tissues and intact spheroids remains a grand challenge. Here, we introduce mid-wave infrared photothermal (MWIP) microscopy operating in the underexplored 2000-2500 nm spectral window for…

The improved diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound breast examinations remains an important goal. In this study, we propose a biophysical feature based machine learning method for breast cancer detection to improve the performance beyond a…

Ultrasound (US) imaging is better suited for intraoperative settings because it is real-time and more portable than other imaging techniques, such as mammography. However, US images are characterized by lower spatial resolution noise-like…

Objective: This paper proposes a deep learning model for breast cancer detection from reconstructed images of microwave imaging scan data and aims to improve the accuracy and efficiency of breast tumor detection, which could have a…

We present a method for early detection of lymphatic fluid accumulation in lymphedema patients based on microwave imaging of the limb volume across an air gap. The proposed algorithm uses contour information of the imaged limb surface to…

Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women. Mammographic findings such as microcalcifications and masses, as well as morphologic features of masses in sonographic scans, are the main diagnostic targets for tumor detection.…
