Abstract

In this paper, preliminary results of the first-in-human clinical investigation with the Wavelia Microwave Breast Imaging (MBI) system prototype are presented. The clinical feasibility of the system, in terms of potential to detect both malignant and benign palpable breast lesions, is illustrated with the MBI results of two patient scans. Some identified technical challenges related to the patient positioning and breast deformation are also discussed.
