Minimum information for dielectric measurements of biological tissues (MINDER): A framework for repeatable and reusable data
(Wiley, 2017-11-13)
The dielectric properties of biological tissues characterise the interaction of human tissues with electromagnetic (EM) fields. Accurate knowledge of the dielectric properties of tissues are vital in EM‐based therapeutic ...
Modeling of the dielectric properties of biological tissues within the histology region
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2017-11-27)
The dielectric properties of biological tissues characterize the interaction of electromagnetic fields with the human body. As such, accurate knowledge of these properties is vital to the design and development of ...
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 ...
Challenges of post-measurement histology for the dielectric characterisation of heterogeneous biological tissues
(MDPI, 2020-06-09)
The dielectric properties of biological tissues are typically measured using the open-ended coaxial probe technique, which is based on the assumption that the tissue sample is homogeneous. Therefore, for heterogeneous ...
An anatomically accurate dielectric profile of the porcine kidney
(IOP Publishing, 2018-02-26)
Microwave ablation is a promising treatment for kidney cancer. Accurate knowledge of the dielectric properties of biological tissues is vital for quantifying the safety, reliability and accuracy of ablation, among other ...
Investigation of histology radius for dielectric characterisation of heterogeneous materials
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2018-07-13)
Knowledge of the dielectric properties of biological tissues is fundamental in the design of novel electromagnetic-based medical devices. Tissue dielectric properties are typically measured using the open-ended coaxial ...
Effects of standard coagulant agents on the dielectric properties of fresh human blood
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2017-11-27)
In this paper, the effects of coagulation and temperature on the dielectric properties of human blood are investigated over the frequency range of 400 MHz - 20 GHz using freshly extracted blood samples. The dielectric ...
Modelling the sensing radius of a coaxial probe for dielectric characterisation of biological tissues
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2018-08-22)
The open-ended coaxial probe is the most common measurement tool used to dielectrically characterize biological tissues. Most healthy and malignant biological tissues are macroscopically heterogeneous, with the exception ...
