ABSTRACT:
The invention is a system for non-invasive microwave tomographic spectroscopy of tissue using a plurality of microwave emitter-receivers spatially oriented to the tissue, an interface medium placed between the emitter-receivers, and a control subsystem operably coupled to the plurality of microwave emitter-receivers for selectively controlling power to the plurality of emitter-receivers and for receiving microwave signals from the plurality of emitter-receivers so that multiple frequency microwave radiation is emitted from a selected plurality of emitter-receivers and received by a selected plurality of emitter-receivers after interacting with and passing through the tissue, and a computational subsystem operably connected to the control subsystem for computing a tomographic spectroscopic image of the tissue from the microwave signals received from the selected plurality of emitter-receivers.
