  • Abstract
    Three-dimensional microwave imaging using the vector Born approximation of the Maxwell equations is discussed. The suggested three-dimensional microwave tomography scheme reduces the imaging process to a series of two-dimensional problems. Model calculations are performed and images of mathematical phantoms are obtained
