Title: Some biomedical imaging applications of electromagnetic waves

Abstract:  The seminar aims at introducing and describing some biomedical applications of electromagnetic waves. Firstly, we focus on X-ray imaging and Magnetic Resonance imaging, which are two conventional imaging modalities used in clinic. Then, microwave imaging is introduced. This latter is not yet used in clinic but can represent a very promising tool for biomedical imaging applications, thanks to its capability to penetrate the biological tissues and non-invasively interact with them.
