BREAST CANCER DETECTION BY T-SHAPED SLOTTED RECTANGULAR MICROSTRIP PATCH ANTENNA

Abstract
This Paper shows the great achievement in the breast cancer detection by microwave imaging ,in this paper firstly the T-Shaped Slotted RMPA is designed for ISM band Application at 2.45 GHz and resonated at particular frequency by iterations on the simulation software and very low losses is shown on particular exact frequency is 32.2dB ,after that The Breast Phantom model with cancer tissues and RMPA with its center is designed and simulated Current density and SAR of the model is calculated which is 1288A/m2 and 3.10*105 respectively and after that Breast Phantom model is designed 50mm away from the RMPA and results shows that current density is reduced about 11times its value is 107.4A/m2

The signal scattering by an object depends on various factors, including the environment, signal strength, and the material properties of the object .For a given signal source and the environment, the scattered signal depends on the electrical properties of the object, especially dielectric and conductivity. This principal is utilized to detect the tumor in the breast using microwave signals. Reflected signals also reflected from various part of the breast which is undesirable in microwave imaging because we want that signal should reflect only from tumors so we have to place the antenna very closest to the breast. The breast tumors have very distinct electrical properties (higher dielectric permittivity and higher conductivity), which allows them to detect by analyzing the scattered signals Microwave breast imaging (MBI) uses low power and longer wavelength signals (compared to X-ray mammography) to obtain information about breast tissues, and promises a safer and more accurate modality for regular breast

    Breast cancer is a kind of cancer that starts and spreads from breast. Signs of breast cancer include feeling a lump in the breast, a change in the breast's shape, the dimpling of the skin, or fluid coming from the nipple, and in the more serious cases there would be shortness of breath, bone pain, yellow skin, and swollen lymph nodes. The most common factors that cause breast cancer are: Obesity, drinking alcohol, early age at first menstruation, lack of physical activity, and having children late or not at all. Also up to 10 percent of cases are due to genes inherited from person's parents. Breast cancer develops in cell from the lining of milk ducts.…

    Nevertheless, mammography can also be employed in the diagnostic procedure, showing images of a well-circumscribed and homogenous tumor with sharp margins. In some instances the mammogram may also show a thin and lucent line called a “halo” that surrounds the tumor; this finding represents the connective tissue that delineates the observed fibroadenoma from the surrounding breast tissue. Aspiration…

    VALPARAISO UNIVERSITY College of Nursing and Health Professions Nursing 605: Advanced Health Assessment Breast Lump Case Study Jane is a 37 year old woman who presents today after finding multiple, tender breast masses last week. She reports the masses were located on the upper outer quadrant of both breasts, and were very painful. Although the pain seems to have subsided, and she no longer feels the masses, she has kept her appointment for further evaluation. She tearfully shares with you that her best friend died of breast cancer last year, and she is fearful she may now have cancer. Jane has never had a mammogram, and does not perform breast self-examinations on a regular basis.…

    Tumor markers are helpful biochemical markers that assist in screening and identifying individuals at high risk of developing cancer. They are also used when diagnosing specific types of tumors and monitoring the progress of specific tumors (McCance & Huether, 2013). Cells from benign tumors and malignant tumors produce tumor markers which can be present in blood, spinal fluid, and in urine (McCance & Huether, 2013). The prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is an antigen that is secreted by the prostate into the blood (McCance & Huether, 2013). The tumor marker is still utilized to assist in detecting and managing prostate cancer, but much controversy remains regarding the reliability of the tumor marker.…

    Breast cancer is the most frequently recognized cancer in American women with 209,060 and 54,010 approximated cases of invasive breast cancer in the United States. The Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Tool was utilized in this survey to project a woman’s risk of developing invasive breast cancer. A total of 10 culturally diversified participants were included in the survey, consists of African American, White American, Asian, and Hispanic. The survey was initiated and distributed using printed questionnaires obtained from National Cancer Institute website. In addition, the questionnaires are composed of risk factors questions that inquired the participants about their breast cancer history, genetics, history of breast biopsy, race, age, first…

    Non – reciprocal device states that, the devices which are having the properties that the forward characteristics are not equal to the reverse characteristics (i.e. S12 ≠ S21). So, same antenna can be used for Transmission and Reception of Electromagnetic Waves. Antenna is a passive device, it does not amplify the signals, and it only directs the signal energy in a particular direction in reference with isotropic antenna. Antenna Beam width is the angular width measured at the half power points of the main lobe. Large gain of antenna means narrow beam width.…
