Reviews
'This book is one of the most comprehensive texts available to date in the area covering multiple biological and medical applications of microwave sensors. ... In my opinion, this is a must-read for the traditional microwave research community with limited medical research background to explore possible biomedical applications of their research. Also, it is a great resource for medical professionals of non-engineering background to explore the new technology which microwave engineers can offer in [the] near-future. This book may also be used as a textbook or graduate level courses in biomedical engineering, electrical engineering, and medical physics.'
