This work demonstrates an application of near field indirect microwave holography for the detection of malignant tissues in human breast in an effective way. The holograms are recorded by two directive antennas aligned along each other's boresight while performing a raster scan over a 2D plane utilizing XY‐linear motorized translation stage and a uniform reference wave. The whole information that is, amplitude and phase of an object has been provided by indirect holography at microwave frequencies. The extracted phase values are used to determine the dielectric permittivity values which are further utilized for the identification and validating the positions of malignant tissues in the breast phantom. The experimental evaluations performed on the in‐house designed and developed tissue mimicking 3D printed breast phantoms. The experimental results demonstrate the ability of microwave holography using directive antennas in detecting and identifying the tumors upto the minimum size of 4 mm and maximum depth of 25 mm in fabricated phantom. The quantitative results present the potential of the Near Field Indirect Holographic Imaging (NFIHI) in order to develop an efficient and economical tool for breast cancer detection.
