Abstract
A method for the development of patient-specific electromagnetic breast model based on clinical breast MR images is presented. Numerical example of a breast model demonstrates the feasibility of the method. The developed model is not only limited to the use for modeling clinical studies of microwave imaging for breast cancer detection, but also to cancer treatment using hyperthermia.
