Results of theoretical and experimental studies of the method of the near-field microwave tomography of the thorax are presented. Integral equations of inverse tomography problem of 3D blood- and air content inhomogeneities by data of multisensory measurements are obtained. Methods of air and blood content profiling in processes of breathing and heart activity by data of bistatic measurements of the scattered signal are proposed and solving algorithms of inverse problems are studied in the numerical simulation. Multifrequency and pulse measurements of scattered signals are carried out in processes of cardiorespiratory activity. By data of bistatic measurements of scattered signals parameters from the thorax, profiling relative air- and blood content profiles has been realized. Application possibilities of the method in the biomedical diagnostics are considered.
