A Clinical Investigation to Evaluate Microwave Imaging Via MammoWave® in a Population-based Screening Program for Early Breast Cancer Detection

"Women undergoing conventional breast screening examination will be asked by the clinical staff if they are interested in taking part in the study.~A short visit should be performed to check the inclusion/exclusion criteria, review demographic data, and the volunteer's medical history. After performing this visit, the volunteers will perform the MammoWave exam on both their breasts.~The exam will be composed of two phases: data acquisition and data processing. During the acquisition, which should take about 8 minutes, the volunteers would be lying down in a prone position, on the bed which is part of MammoWave.~When the acquisition is completed, the data will be processed through a dedicated microwave imaging algorithm. The output will be composed of microwave images, plus parameters describing the images. MammoWave output will also comprise a label obtained using an optimized classification algorithm."
