Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women globally, stemming from gene mutations that prompt irregular cellular growth and subsequent tumor development. Early-stage detection of cancer cells results in a remarkable 99% survival rate. This research presents a microwave imaging technique for the non-invasive identification of tumors in the initial stages within the women's breast.

The design presented two peaks with strong absorption of more than 97% at 0.49 and 0.

The proposed structure is composed of copper split-ring resonators printed on Arlon Diclad 527 dielectric substrate. Reflection coefficient was determined by using numerical simulation, and the structure was experimentally tested to validate the sensor at the X band frequency.
