Title: Variation in dielectric properties due to pathological changes in human liver. Author: Peyman A, Kos B, Djokić M, Trotovšek B, Limbaeck-Stokin C, Serša G, Miklavčič D. Journal: Bioelectromagnetics; 2015 Dec; 36(8):603-12. PubMed ID: 26508012. Abstract: Dielectric properties of freshly excised human liver tissues (in vitro) with several pathological conditions including cancer were obtained in frequency range 100 MHz-5 GHz. Differences in dielectric behavior of normal and pathological tissues at microwave frequencies are discussed based on histological information for each tissue. Data presented are useful for many medical applications, in particular nanosecond pulsed electroporation techniques. Knowledge of dielectric properties is vital for mathematical calculations of local electric field distribution inside electroporated tissues and can be used to optimize the process of electroporation for treatment planning procedures.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
