Stroke Diagnosis using Microstrip Patch Antennas Based on Microwave Tomography Systems
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Research & Health Sciences (IJMRHS) - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 3
Abstract
Microwave tomography (MT) based on stroke diagnosis is one of the alternative methods for determinations of the haemorrhagic, ischemic and stroke in brain nervous systems. It is focusing on the brain imaging, continuous monitoring, and preclinical applications. It provides cost effective system and able to use the rural and urban medical clinics that lack the necessary resources in effective stroke diagnosis during emerging applications in road accident and pre-ambulance clinical treatment. In the early works, the design of microstrip patch antennas (MPAs) involved the implementation of MT system. Consequently, the MT system presented a few limitations since it required an effcient MPA design with appropriate parameters. Moreover, there were no specifc diagnosis modules and body centric features in it. The present research proposes the MPA designs in the forms of diagnosis modules and implements it on the MT system.
