本文综述了微波热成像的物理原理、操作方法、测量局限性和潜在的医学应用。我们提出了在1.3和3.3 GHz的乳腺癌检测研究的详细结果，包括微波频率，时间，肿瘤深度和肿瘤大小的检测率的依赖性。在1.3 GHz，微波热成像检测乳腺癌以及红外热成像（真阳性率= 0.76，当真阴性率= 0.63）。当两种方法结合使用时，真阳性率比单独使用任何一种方法提高约0.1。
We review the physical principles, method of operation, measurement limitations, and potential medical applications of microwave thermography. We present detailed results of a study of breast cancer detection at 1.3 and 3.3 GHz, including the dependence of detection rates on microwave frequency, time, tumor depth, and tumor size. At 1.3 GHz, microwave thermography detects breast cancer as well as infrared thermography (true-positive rate = 0.76 when true-negative rate = 0.63). When the two methods are combined, the true-positive rate increases by about 0.1 over that of either method alone.
