A device (4) for reducing reflected electromagnetic radiation in a medical imaging process. The device (4) comprises a sheet of material adapted to be placed against the body of a patient (24) and to at least partially transmit electromagnetic radiation. The thickness and characteristic impedance of the material are selected to reduce the intensity of the radiation reflected back towards a source of microwave radiation (26), compared with the intensity of radiation reflected from the surface of the patient in the absence of said device. |
