  • Abstract
    Magnetic nanoparticle enhanced microwave imaging has been recently proposed as an effective strategy to monitor breast cancer. In this communication, we describe the ongoing activities concerned with a first experimental feasibility assessment of this technique. Such an activity aims at providing a proof-of-concept in realistic working conditions and it is obviously necessary to proceed towards the stage of pre-clinical trials.
