Terahertz emerges as a promising cancer imaging technique. Many factors can cause imaging results, including polarization and different tissue types. This research discusses the effect of wave polarization and different tissue types. The imaging results with perpendicularly two linear polarization give the best imaging results qualitatively and quantitatively with a standard deviation of 7.519. Different tissue types affect the imaging results, but the effect is not linear with the increasing dielectric constant. This research can be used as a consideration and reference for other researchers developing a THz imaging system.
