Description of
Microwave Imaging Methods and Applications
by Matteo Pastorino (Author), Andrea Randazzo (Author) Microwave Imaging Methods and Applications provides practitioners and researchers with a complete overview of the latest and most important noninvasive and nondestructive techniques for inspecting structures and bodies by using microwaves. Placing emphasis on applications, the book considers many areas, from medical imaging and security to industrial engineering and subsurface prospection. For each application, readers are presented with the objectives of the inspection and related challenges. Moreover, this groundbreaking resource details computational methods that can be used to solve inverse problems related to specific applications. Including clear examples or the most significant practical results, this forward-looking reference focuses on systems that have been recently developed. Professionals gain the knowledge needed to compare imaging methods used in different applications and develop new uses of imaging apparatuses and systems.

Stevo's Book Reviews on the Internet There are many good specialized books about various aspects of microwave imaging, but Pastorino and Randazzo believed that an overview of methods and applications could stimulate readers along different directions - novel applications perhaps, or improving the technology in some manner. They cover basic concepts of microwave imaging systems and the electromagnetic characterization of materials, fundamentals of electromagnetic imaging and inverse scattering, microwave imaging in civil engineering and industrial applications, biomedical applications, subsurface prospection, security purposes, and new trends and future developments. Protoview Matteo Pastorino and Andrea Randazzo's Microwave Imaging Methods and Applications provides researchers and microwave imagers with a review of the latest techniques for inspecting structures and bodies using microwave applications, and covers everything from medical imaging to security and engineering applications. Examples, equations, reviews of systems, and cross-comparisons of different imaging methods all contribute to a reference that covers not only basic and advanced applications, but the latest research and discoveries in the field. Both are 'must have' references for any professional or college-level collection strong in microwave technology.
