Title

A Study Of Uwb Imaging For Bone Cancer Detection

Keywords

Bone cancer; time-domain signal reflection; UWB detection

Abstract

The use of UWB imaging for bone cancer is described. A UWB monopole antenna in the 1-10 GHz range is used to scan a three layer model of bone, muscle, bone cortex and marrow, with and without a tumor. Using image reconstruction techniques, the results for the detection of the tumor and for an estimation of the tumor size are presented. Tumors of a radius from 8 to 30 mm and at a depth from 2 to 31 mm inside the bone and marrow layer are considered. © 2012 IEEE.
