A novel medical imaging system that is based on radio-wave signals at microwave frequencies and has unique properties. The system can be used for various diagnostic applications such as breast cancer detection, brain stroke detection, and assessment of internal bleeding (trauma emergencies). 144-. (canceled)45. A system comprising:an imaging volume to receive a biological target;a plurality of antennas; anda metamaterial structure disposed between the plurality of antennas and the biological target, wherein the metamaterial structure is configured to affect an amount of energy that penetrates the biological target from the electromagnetic radiation transmitted towards the biological target at multiple frequencies, transmitting electromagnetic radiation towards the biological target received in the imaging volume through the metamaterial structure; and', 'capturing received electromagnetic radiation of the transmitted electromagnetic radiation that has interacted with the biological target for imaging at least a portion of the biological target based on the received electromagnetic radiation., 'the plurality of antennas46. The system of claim 45 , wherein the received electromagnetic radiation is captured at a plurality of different physical locations of antennas of the plurality of antennas.47. The system of claim 46 , wherein the plurality of antennas generates a tomogram based on the received electromagnetic radiation captured from the plurality of different paths.48. the system of claim 45 , wherein the metamaterial structure comprises one or more metamaterial elements.49. The system of claim 48 , wherein the metamaterial structure is configured to affect the amount of energy that penetrates the biological target by modifying a number of layers in the metamaterial structure claim 48 , a number of elements in the metamaterial structure claim 48 , or a combination thereof.50. The system of claim 45 , wherein the biological target comprises multiple layers of tissue ...
