Problem statement. Antenna elements that are part of multichannel radiothermographs should have minimal dimensions and a low level of mutual communication when placed on biological objects.

Purpose. There is to investigate a flat biconus antenna and a two–way Archimedean spiral antenna as elements of antenna arrays in the range from 2 to 5 GHz when working on a biological phantom - the human mammary gland.

Results. The results of the distribution of absorbed power inside the biological phantom are obtained and the magnitude of the mutual connection between closely spaced elements when working as part of an antenna array is determined.

Practical significance. The designs of antenna elements for operation as part of antenna arrays for radiometry tasks of biological objects are proposed.
