Combining Millimeter-Wave Imaging, Ultrasound and Elastography in a New Multimodal Approach for Breast Cancer Detection: Initial Experimental Results.

In this paper, for the first time, a triple-mode scan using electromagnetic waves, in the shape of millimeter waves, and ultrasound waves, to obtain B-mode and quasistatic elastography images of a phantom of human breast tissues is shown. A homogeneous phantom composed of nontoxic, low-cost and easy-to-handle materials (i.e.
