A Proof-of-Concept study was conducted to investigate the feasibility of a breast tumor monitoring system using a flexible vest embedded with ultrawideband antennas. The motivation behind this study is to provide a noninvasive, real-time, and continuous monitoring solution for breast cancer, a disease that continues to be one of the most common causes of death among women worldwide. Traditional imaging techniques such as mammography, ultrasound, and magnetic resonance imaging have limitations in terms of cost, radiation exposure, and accessibility, making it imperative to explore alternative methods that offer patient comfort, cost-effectiveness, and high accuracy [1]. The proposed system aims to address these challenges by utilizing UWB technology, which can offer high resolution and deep tissue penetration while minimizing the potential risks associated with radiation.
