Feasibility of water content-based dielectric characterisation of biological tissues using mixture models
Balduino, Roberta; McDermott, Barry; Porter, Emily; Elahi, Muhammad Adnan; Shahzad, Atif; O'Halloran, Martin; Cavagnaro, Marta (IEEE, 2019-01-23)This study quantitatively examines the validity of mixture formulae as models to describe the microwave-range dielectric properties of biological tissue of varying water content. Mixture formulae, specifically the Maxwell ... -
Monitoring microwave thermal ablation using electrical impedance tomography: an experimental feasibility study
Bottiglieri, Anna; Dunne, Eoghan; McDermott, Barry; Cavagnaro, Marta; Porter, Emily; Farina, Laura (IEEE, 2020)Low-cost and reliable methods for monitoring the size of the ablation zone during microwave thermal ablation (MTA) are crucial in the oncological clinical practice. The aim of this work is to test the performance of ...
