Excerpt from Characterization of Tissue-Equivalent Materials for High-Frequency Applications (200 Mhz to 20 Ghz)
Many research areas require electrical tests that use phantom materials with properties similar to that of the various tissues of the human body, over various frequency bands. In the past, tissue equivalent materials have been used for applications that include studies on the low-frequency electromagnetic wave interaction with the human body, through-the-wall imaging, the interaction of medical implant devices, and the interaction of wireless transmitters with human tissue The conductivities and permittivities of the human body are highly inhomogeneous, and bone, blood, muscle, etc.; all have different permittivities and conductivities. Since the permittivity of human tissue is frequency dispersive, it is important that the simulant material mimics the frequency dependent properties.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book summarizes high-frequency dielectric material research, from 200 MHz to 20 GHz, conducted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. The author's goal was to identify materials that are time stable, easy to produce, and suitable for a broad range of frequencies. The book begins with an overview of the problem, then delves into previous research on the dielectric properties of human tissue. The author then considers various dielectric measurement methods for tissue-equivalent materials, such as solid simulants, liquid simulants, and agar and agarose-based tissue-equivalent materials. The book concludes with a discussion of the results of the author's research, including the identification of several promising materials for use as tissue-equivalent materials in high-frequency applications. The book provides a valuable resource for researchers in the field of high-frequency dielectric materials, and its insights will be of interest to anyone working with electromagnetic waves and their interaction with biological tissues. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781390312072_0
