Abstract

The results of this study support the utility of 3-D microwave tomography for imaging the distribution of normal tissues in the breast, specifically, dense fibroglandular tissue versus less dense adipose tissue, and suggest that further investigation of its use for volumetric evaluation of breast density is warranted.
