1. Apparatus for non-invasively detecting movement of object(s) and/or fluid flow in a body, said apparatus comprising:

  • radio frequency (RF) transmitter means for generating RF radiation;

    at least one RF antenna for directing RF radiation generated by the said transmitter means to the body being monitored;

    antenna tuner means for matching the output impedance of the said transmitter means with the equivalent impedance of the said body; and

    processor means for equationally processing the forward and reflected transmission-line voltages to provide an output signal representative of impedance match changes to the said body with the said transmitter, whereby to indicate movement of at least one object or fluid flow in the said body.
