Abstract :
Recent developments about Microwave Radiometry concern the Reception of the thermal signals emitted by subcutaneous human tissues (Microwave Thermography). Several equipments have been built and clinical examinations carried out, in order to detect tumors, for example. Now, it is necessary to study the characteristics of the electromagnetic coupling between probe and tissues, and to explain the thermal patterns.
