Near-field microwave radiometry and radiometric imaging are non-invasive techniques that are able to provide temperature information at a depth of up to several centimetres in subcutaneous tissues. They are based on the measurement of microwave electromagnetic thermal noise. This paper describes the basic principles, measurement methods and limitations of the techniques and the results of clinical studies, and it reviews recent progress.
