微波乳房成像系统原型用于扫描一小群患者。该原型实现了基于单基地雷达的微波成像方法，并利用超宽带信号。成功扫描了8名患者，其中几张图像显示的反应与临床患者病史一致。这些令人鼓舞的结果激发了微波成像用于乳房健康评估的进一步研究。
A prototype microwave breast imaging system is used to scan a small group of patients. The prototype implements a monostatic radar-based approach to microwave imaging and utilizes ultra-wideband signals. Eight patients were successfully scanned, and several of the resulting images show responses consistent with the clinical patient histories. These encouraging results motivate further studies of microwave imaging for breast health assessment.
