Medical Microwave Imaging (MMWI) is an emerging medical imaging technique which has been studied in the last decades for early detection of breast cancer and brain stroke. In this presentation, I will present the work I have been developing in Instituto de Biofísica e Engenharia Biomédica towards breast cancer detection and staging with MMWI during my Ph.D. and as a post-doctoral researcher: from the creation of anatomical models, tissue properties characterisation and prototype development, to the implementation of signal processing algorithms and machine learning models.

Short Bio: Daniela M. Godinho received a Ph.D. degree in Biomedical Engineering and Biophysics (2022) from Faculdade de Ciências, Universidade de Lisboa, Portugal, and an Integrated Master degree in Biomedical Engineering (2016) from Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia, Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Portugal. She is currently an Invited Assistant Professor and a Post-Doctoral Researcher at Faculdade de Ciências, Universidade de Lisboa, Portugal. In the last five years, she has been working on Microwave Imaging to aid breast cancer diagnosis and staging. Her research interests rely on areas such as medical imaging, signal and image processing, and machine learning.
