style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;mso-bidi-font-family:"Times
New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-bidi" lang="EN-US">Building
on recent demonstrations [1], electromagnetic induction
imaging with atomic magnetometers has paved the path to a
novel approach to biomedical imaging, with the promise of
non-invasive and safe <i style="mso-bidi-font-style:normal">in
vivo </i>mapping of organs’ and tissues’ dielectric
properties. This technique is expected to have a tremendous
impact in research and clinical practice when electric
conductivity plays – or is predicted to play – a relevant role
[2]. Today, this field, actively investigated by various
groups worldwide, is at the edge of a major breakthrough: the
requirements for imaging biological tissues are met [3], and
the first biomedical images appear to be close to realisation.</span></p>

New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-bidi" lang="EN-US">In
this talk, the most recent progress in imaging with atomic
magnetometers will be reviewed. The enabling features for
biomedical imaging will be treated in detail. Sensitivity of
the atomic magnetometers, extension to low-conductivity range,
phase and imaging stability, sensitivity to spatial features
and resolution, operational configurations, as well as
perspectives for full 3D mapping and image reconstruction will
be discussed [3-8].</span></p>
