Optimised analytical models of the dielectric properties of biological tissue
(Elsevier, 2017-02-09)
The interaction of electromagnetic fields with the human body is quantified by the dielectric properties of biological tissues. These properties are incorporated into complex numerical simulations using parametric models ...
Effect of logarithmic and linear frequency scales on parametric modelling of tissue dielectric data
(IOP Publishing, 2017-02-03)
The dielectric properties of biological tissues have been studied widely over the past half-century. These properties are used in a vast array of applications, from determining the safety of wireless telecommunication ...
Stable tissue-mimicking materials and an anatomically realistic, adjustable head phantom for electrical impedance tomography
(IOP Publishing, 2017-11-27)
Objective. To develop dielectrically accurate, easy to mould solid tissue-mimicking materials (TMMs) for use with electrical impedance tomography (EIT) and combine them into a head phantom with realistic anatomy and ...
Anatomically and dielectrically realistic microwave head phantom with circulation and reconfigurable lesions
(The Electromagnetics Academy, 2017)
Phantoms provide valuable test platforms for developing medical devices. Solid materials in particular allow fabrication of stable and robust models. This paper presents a novel, anatomically realistic, multi-layered head ...
Comparison of radar-based microwave imaging algorithms applied to experimental breast phantoms
(Union Radio-Scientifique Internationale, 2017-08-19)
Microwave imaging is a promising imaging modality for
the early detection of breast cancer. The two most important
signal processing components of a radar-based microwave
imaging system are the early-time artifact removal ...
A novel tissue-mimicking material for phantom development in medical applications of EIT
(EIT2017, 2017-06-21)
A solid Tissue-Mimicking Material (TMM) with adjustable conductivity properties, which can be matched to those of biological tissue, is presented. TMM models of breast fat and gland matching the conductivity of real tissue ...
Realistic 3D finite element mesh of the adult human pelvis for electrical impedance tomography
(Zenodo, 2017-06-21)
The finite element method is a numerical technique
used to solve forward models for electrical impedance tomography.
To date, realistic finite element models (FEMs) have
been created for the head and thorax, but pelvic ...
Investigation of histology region in dielectric measurements of heterogeneous tissues
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2017-08-17)
The dielectric properties of tissues are the key parameters in electromagnetic medical technologies. Despite the apparent simplicity of the dielectric measurement process, reported data have been inconsistent for heterogeneous ...
Minimum information for dielectric measurements of biological tissues (MINDER): A framework for repeatable and reusable data
(Wiley, 2017-11-13)
