Prototype of simplified microwave imaging system for brain stroke follow up

Abstract

Stroke could be detected by Microwave Imaging method (MWI) in the future. At ELEDIA@CTU laboratory was designed prototype of MWI system for stroke follow up/detection. The system was able to detect five from six strokes which were then reconstructed by existing algorithm for difference Microwave Imaging. These results were very valuable for next research where for example new antenna elements need to be design as well as realistic phantom of human head.
