Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Microwave CT is being researched and developed all over the world as it can be a mammography that can test breast cancer in high-density breasts. In this study, we attempted to reconstruct a microwave CT image using the FBTS method from 24 dipole antennas placed around a hollow cylinder and S21 signals obtained by a vector network analyzer. We also investigated problems in the calculation of experimental data, such as calibration and noise. In the CT calculation, a supercomputer was used to achieve a speed increase of 200 times or more, and the calculation was completed within 15 minutes.
