A wide slot UWB antenna is used for the detection of breast cancer .This method works on the principle of ultra wide band radar imaging technique. In this paper comparing the performance of both stacked patch and wide slot antenna used for the purpose of breast cancer detection. Calculating specific absorption rate of both antenna, when it is placed in a normal tissue and tumors tissue, and comparing its results .And also measuring certain parameters of both simulated and measured results. From this comparative study its clear that wide slot UWB antenna has excellent performance in this UWB frequency range. And also wide slot antenna is three times smaller than stacked patch antenna.
