Electromagnetic sensing and imaging for medical applications

Electromagnetic sensing and imaging (EMT) is an emerging biomedical imaging modality, which when matured, might present an effective supplement to current imaging technologies for non-invasive assessment of functional and pathological conditions of tissues. This paper presents the review of research results obtained by author with his colleagues and focused on various potential clinical applications of the technology.
