Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Electromagnetics
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Microwave (MW) sensing offers advantages for portable medical monitoring and diagnostics.
  • Rapid, frequent, and out-of-hospital detection of skull fractures and their healing is needed.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the efficacy of MW sensing for detecting skull fractures using realistic models.
  • To identify optimal frequency ranges (ISM and ultrawideband) for skull fracture detection.

Main Methods:

  • Electromagnetic simulations using various head tissue models and an anatomically realistic head model.
  • Experimental validation using a human skull and laboratory-developed tissue phantoms.
  • Analysis of antenna (S11) and channel (S21) parameters to assess fracture impact.

Main Results:

  • Skull fractures create distinct differences in S11 (0.1-20 dB) and S21 (0.1-30 dB) parameters.
  • Microwaves can detect fractures narrower than 1 mm, with detectability being frequency-dependent.
  • Power flow analysis visualizes the effect of fractures on signal propagation.

Conclusions:

  • MW-based detection is a viable method for identifying skull fractures with safe, low-cost portable devices.
  • The technique can potentially monitor fracture healing and aid in other MW-based diagnostics like stroke detection.
