Abstract

Diagnostics Testing Therapeutics
The amplitude cancellation of in-phase and out of phase of dual source single detector showed remarkable sensitivity to localize small object such as breast tumor with positional accuracy of millimeters. The system design of low frequency, battery operated, mini handheld scanner based the principle of amplitude cancellation is introduced, and performance is evaluated on the phantom simulated the optical properties of tissue and tumor. Some clinical test results are shown.
