Microwave application in medical sensing

RF and microwaves as non-ionizing radiation energy are very safe in application of medicine, especially in diagnosis and treatment. Application of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has been greatly progressing in medical diagnosis. Microwave techniques have a great potential to help to advance MRI techniques. In this paper, microwave reflection is studied to obtain blood glucose level and noninvasive temperature measurement is studied for heating treatment under application of MRI and microwave irradiation.
