BrainWave

BrainWave uses a wave-guided device configuration, containing two antennas that operate in the microwave band (1-5 GHz) at a very low power (1mW). BrainWave allows to illuminate the head using an electromagnetic fields and to measure the correspondent scattered fields. he measured fields is then processed through a dedicated algorithm, obtaining one or more images of the brain. Microwave imaging exploits the contrast in the dielectric properties at microwave frequencies of normal tissues and tissues with lesions. BrainWave software uses a novel, fast, and accurate imaging algorithm (based on the Huygens Principle) which highlights tissues dielectric inhomogeneities.
