| Abstract | In this study, we follow a healthy patient volunteer with daily breast scans using our time-domain microwave radar monitoring system. Over the course of a 28-day period, which corresponds to the time frame of the menstrual cycle, we perform a total of 54 scans per breast. Our breast monitoring system uses a time-domain, multistatic radar approach with 16 wideband sensors. We first directly compare the recorded signals for each scan, then examine reconstructed images for each breast, and compare how they vary day by day. Images are compared using the structural similarity index, and based on their pixel intensities. We further estimate the daily average tissue permittivity for each breast. The results demonstrate that our system is able to detect variations in the breast tissues over the monthly period; however, we estimate that the quality of these changes differs from those that would appear due to a malignant growth. The tissue changes seen in this trial are not likely to affect the outcome of long-term monitoring for the purpose of abnormality detection; however, measurements on a larger population are required before wider conclusions can be made. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
