Exploration of Microwave-Based Dynamic Thermal Imaging for Lymphedema Diagnosis
Description
The project has two objectives:
- Develop a novel diagnostic approach for lymphedema using microwave-based dynamic thermal imaging, specifically Active Microwave Thermography (AMT).
- Design and fabricate polymer-based skin phantoms, perform microwave-stimulated thermal measurements, and analyze the data using advanced modeling and statistical techniques.
The project is a Scientific Exchange with Dr. Kristen Donnell, Missouri University of Science & Technology, Rolla, USA.
