Investigation of breast cancer detection based on tissue sensing adaptive radar (TSAR)

Abstract

This work present an analysis of breast cancer is the commonest cancer in urban and rural areas in India and accounts for about 20% to 25% of all cancers in women. And also investigation of breast cancer detection is based on differences in electrical properties between healthy and malignant tissues. Tissue sensing adaptive radar (TSAR) has been proposed as a method of microwave breast imaging for early tumor detection. TSAR senses all tissues in the volume of interest and adapts accordingly. In this paper, the second generation experimental system for TSAR is presented. Materials with electrical properties similar to those in the breast are used for the breast model. A resistively loaded Wu-King monopole antenna is fabricated, and reflections from the breast model over the frequency range of 1-10 GHz are recorded. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.
