Real-time monitoring of thermal ablation treatments by means of safe and low-cost imaging tools is a still unmet clinical need. Since ablation significantly changes the electromagnetic properties of tissue, microwave tomography is a potential candidate to fill this gap. In this communication, initial results from feasibility studies that corroborate such an expectation are reviewed and discussed
