Microwave technology has the potential to revolutionize how, when, and what care can be
delivered to patients with acute, life-threatening medical conditions. The prospects are that …

Microwave imaging has recently drawn increasing attention due to its potential for rapid
stroke diagnosis using this low-cost, and non-ionizing modality. Besides, this modality can …

Microwave imaging is one of the rapidly developing frontier disciplines in the field of modern
medical imaging. The development of microwave imaging algorithms for reconstructing …

A healthy brain requires an adequate blood supply. A stroke or “brain attack” compromises
cerebral blood flow (CBF) leading to brain injury. This brain injury can lead to death or …

This chapter provides an introduction to the physical principles underlying the adoption of
microwave technology as a biomedical imaging modality for diagnosis and follow-up of …

Started more than 30 years ago with experiments on isolated animal organs, microwave
imaging techniques were rapidly oriented for targeting clinical applications. When compared …

This paper presents the experimental validation of a microwave imaging system for real-time
monitoring of brain stroke in the post-acute stage. The system exploits a low-complexity …

This work presents the outcomes of a numerical analysis based on a 3-D high fidelity model
of a realistic microwave imaging system for the clinical follow-up of brain stroke. The …

Brain strokes are one of the leading causes of disability and mortality in adults in developed
countries. Ischemic stroke (85% of total cases) and hemorrhagic stroke (15%) must be …

This work focuses on brain stroke imaging via microwave technology. In particular, the open
issue of monitoring patients after stroke onset is addressed here in order to provide …
