Microwave calcaneus phantom for bone imaging applications
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2020-03-15)
Microwave imaging can be used as an alternate modality for monitoring bone health. Dielectrically accurate, anthropomorphic phantoms play vital role in testing of imaging prototype prior to clinical applications. However, ...
Dielectric characterization of diseased human trabecular bones at microwave frequency
(Elsevier, 2020-02-07)
The objective of this study is to determine whether in vitro dielectric properties of human trabecular bones, can distinguish between osteoporotic and osteoarthritis patients' bone samples. Specifically this study enlightens ...
Microwave bone imaging: A preliminary investigation on numerical bone phantoms for bone health monitoring
(MDPI, 2020-11-05)
Microwave tomography (MWT) can be used as an alternative modality for monitoring human bone health. Studies have found a significant dielectric contrast between healthy and diseased human trabecular bones. A set of diverse ...
A feasibility study on microwave imaging of bone for osteoporosis monitoring
(Springer, 2021-03-30)
The dielectric properties of bones are found to be influenced by the demineralisation of bones. Therefore, microwave imaging (MWI) can be used to monitor in vivo dielectric properties of human bones and hence aid in the ...
An insight into bone dielectric properties variation: a foundation for electromagnetic medical devices
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2018-09-10)
Dielectric properties of bones have recently got significant attention to monitor bone quality. This paper reports in-vitro dielectric properties of human trabecular bone samples obtained from osteoporotic and osteoarthritic ...
Dielectric properties of bones: A potential indicator for osteoporosis
(National University of Ireland Galway, 2018-01-26)
Osteoporosis is one of the major bone disease that results
into bone fragility and fractures. Approximately 300,000
people over the age of 50 years suffer from osteoporosis
in Ireland. Osteoporosis is mainly caused due ...
Investigating human bone microarchitecture and dielectric properties in microwave frequency range
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2019-03-31)
Dielectric properties of bones are proposed to monitor bone quality. However, no study has investigated the relationship between bone dielectric properties and microarchitecture of bone, which is of paramount importance ...
A review of the dielectric properties of the bone for low frequency medical technologies
(IOP Publishing, 2019-01-07)
The dielectric properties are key parameters that quantify the interaction between electromagnetic waves and human biological tissues. In particular, the development of electromagnetic-based medical technologies rely on ...
Microwave bone imaging: experimental evaluation of calcaneus bone phantom and imaging prototype
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2020-12-14)
Microwave imaging (MWI) can be used as an
alternate imaging modality for monitoring bone health.
Evaluation and characterization of MWI prototype is a precursor
step before in vivo investigation of bone dielectric ...
Anthropomorphic calcaneus phantom for microwave bone imaging applications
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2020-10-09)
Recent studies have found a significant dielectric contrast between healthy and osteoporotic human trabecular bones. This dielectric contrast can be exploited by microwave imaging for monitoring human bone health. The ...
