    • Dielectric properties of bones for the monitoring of osteoporosis 

      Amin, Bilal; Elahi, Muhammad Adnan; Shahzad, Atif; Porter, Emily; McDermott, Barry; O’Halloran, Martin (Springer, 2018-08-29)
      Osteoporosis is one of the most common diseases that leads to bone fractures. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry is currently employed to measure the bone mineral density and to diagnose osteoporosis. Alternatively, the ...
    • An empirical dielectric mixing model for biological tissues 

      Salahuddin, Saqib; McDermott, Barry; Porter, Emily; O’Halloran, Martin; Elahi, Muhammad Adnan; Shahzad, Atif (IEEE, 2019-03-31)
      Dielectric properties of biological tissues are critically important for various electromagnetic based medical therapeutic and diagnostic technologies. This paper attempts to develop an empirical dielectric mixture model ...
    • 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 ...
    • Gamma band light stimulation in human case studies: Groundwork for potential Alzheimer's disease treatment 

      Jones, Marggie; McDermott, Barry; Oliveira, Bárbara Luz; O'Brien, Aoife; Coogan, Declan; Lang, Mark; Moriarty, Niamh; Dowd, Eilis; Quinlan, Leo; Mc Ginley, Brian; Dunne, Eoghan; Newell, David; Porter, Emily; Elahi, Muhammad Adnan; O' Halloran, Martin; Shahzad, Atif (IOS Press, 2019-05-27)
      It is known that proteins associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis are significantly reduced by 40¿Hz entrainment in mice. If this were to translate to humans, verifying that such a light stimulus can induce ...
