Microwave Breast Imaging (MBI) is an emerging non-ionizing imaging modality, with the potential to support breast diagnosis and management. Wavelia is an MBI system prototype, of 1st generation, which has recently completed a First-In-Human (FiH) clinical investigation on a 25-symptomatic patient cohort, to explore the capacity of the technology to detect and characterize malignant (invasive carcinoma) and benign (fibroadenoma, cyst) breast disease. Two recent publications presented promising results demonstrated by the device in this FiH study in detecting and localizing, as well as delineating size and malignancy risk, of malignant and benign palpable breast lesions. In this paper, the methodology that has been employed in the Wavelia semi-automated Quantitative Imaging Function (QIF), to support breast lesion detection and characterization in the FiH clinical investigation of the device, is presented and the critical design parameters are highlighted.
