Resumo(s)
Microwave Imaging (MWI) has been studied to aid breast cancer staging through the detection of Axillary Lymph Nodes (ALNs) metastasised by breast cancer. The anatomy of the axillary region imposes a limited angular view on MWI prototypes which may hinder artefact removal performance and, consequently, a correct detection of ALNs. In this initial study, we compare different antenna configurations for axillary MWI, while evaluating the performance of different artefact removal algorithms. The imaging results highlight the importance of choosing an optimal combination of antenna configuration and artefact removal algorithm for accurate target detection.
