Abstract

A multimodal medical imaging technique is proposed to improve breast cancer diagnosis. Initial studies are being pursued in order to optimise breast cancer detection and classification when combining Positron Emission Mammography (PEM) with Ultra Wideband (UWB) radar imaging. In this study, the same numerical breast phantom is simulated for both PEM and UWB, and detection capabilities are compared. Furthermore, small tumours are classified in terms of their shape based on their radar target signatures.
