With the growing interest in the microwave imaging for early breast cancer detection, there is a need to develop an advance artificial breast phantom to emulate the interactions of electromagnetic waves with biological tissues. In this article, details of a realistically shaped heterogeneous breast phantom manufactured for the use in an ultra wideband microwave imaging system are presented. The developed phantom has electrical characteristics which are in good agreement with those of real breasts.
