The University of Manitoba electromagnetic imaging laboratory (EIL) has grown out of a program of research into the use of electromagnetic phenomena to image objects obscured from normal perception. This research began with a focus on ground-penetrating radar for landmine detection and has now expanded into several different areas related to biomedical imaging: microwave tomography (MWT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasonic imaging (USI).
The group has received major research funding from Western-Economic Development Canada through the Winnipeg Partnership Agreement as well as the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada.
State-of-the-art experimental store-grain monitoring using 3-D electromagnetic imaging. Data was collected using surface current probes and inverted using finite element contrast source inversion algorithm.
A repository of multi-static, near-field microwave scattering measurements. The data are presented both raw (uncalibrated), and calibrated with a scattered-field calibration. Data are given for different targets.
A pilot study of imaging human forearms using microwave tomography (MWT). Reconstructions were enhanced using prior information and state-of-the-art finite-element contrast source inversion algorithm.
The reconstruction of the electrical properties for biological tissues using microwave tomography and state-of-the-art Gauss-Newton inversion technique.
A novel dual-polarized microwave imaging system that uses modulated probes to measure two-orthogonal field polarization at probe-locations.
