This book presents an innovative concept for the realization of
sensors based on a planar metamaterial microwave array and shows
their application in biomedical analysis and treatment. The sensors
are able to transduce the dielectric properties of materials in
their direct vicinity into an electric signal. The specific array
organization permits a simultaneous analysis of several materials
using a single readout signal or a relative characterization of one
material where information about its spatial distribution can be
extracted. Two applications of the designed sensors are described
here: the first is a cytological screening using micro fluidic
technology, which shows that the sensors may be integrated into
lab-on-chip technologies; the second application regards the use of
the sensor in both the analysis and treatment of organic tissues.
The developed sensor is able not only to screen the tissues for
abnormalities, but also, by changing the applied signals, to
perform thermal ablation and treat the abnormalities in a highly
focused way. Thus, the research described in this book represents a
considerable advancement in the field of biomedical microwave
sensing. Â
