Abstract

The medical field experiencing a rapid development in the implantable medical devices for the convenience of the patients. The implants in the human bodies are an incorporation of many new technologies, i.e., wireless, nano/micro, IOT and sensing technologies. These are the advanced techniques for human body health monitoring, vital life gathering auxiliary and diseases detecting and supervisory. Further, breast cancer is a serious disease, and it is notified that it is the largest prominent reason of cancer death for women in the world. Early cure of this disease save the 80% life of women. Many techniques are available in the medical platform to detect as well as to control this cancer. In latest, RF implantable/wearable antennas are found popular for this purpose. This paper presents a review of the many microwave imaging approaches available for detection of the breast cancer. It includes the review of different implantable/wearable antennas available for the clinical measurement of the breast cancer detection. The different aspects to be taken care for the implantable are the addition of this review paper.
