Area of Science:

Biomedical Engineering
Medical Imaging
Signal Processing

Background:

Rapid diagnosis and treatment are critical for stroke patients to minimize brain damage.
Current diagnostic methods often involve delays, impacting patient outcomes.
Transportable, low-cost diagnostic tools are needed for emergency medical services.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate the effectiveness of a portable Ultra-Wideband (UWB) radar imaging system for rapid detection of acute brain lesions.
To develop signal processing algorithms that ensure high performance with low computational complexity for a transportable device.
To explore the potential of UWB radar imaging in improving emergency stroke care.

Main Methods:

Development and testing of a transportable UWB radar imaging system.
Application of Principal Component Analysis (PCA)-based preprocessing algorithms.
Utilizing a computationally simple beamforming algorithm.
Investigating a multistatic approach to enhance performance.

Main Results:

PCA-based preprocessing achieved good performance with a simple beamforming algorithm.
The PCA-based method outperformed existing state-of-the-art preprocessing techniques.
A multistatic approach further improved performance with only a minor increase in computational complexity.

Conclusions:

PCA-based preprocessing is a viable solution for UWB radar imaging in emergency stroke diagnostics.
The developed system shows promise for rapid, on-site detection of acute brain lesions.
This technology could significantly reduce treatment delays and improve outcomes for stroke patients.
