摘要
We describe the implementation of a *MATLAB experimental framework for the data conversion of magnetic-resonance (MRI) images to contrast maps. This is done for use in microwave breast cancer detection via the contrast source (CS) model (although the underlying logic can be adapted quite easily to different contexts and applications). The framework is conceived to relieve interested developers from most of the programming burden, and to provide final users with a friendly, consistent approach to the numerical simulations.
