  • Title: The dielectric properties of normal and tumour mouse tissue between 50 MHz and 10 GHz.
    Author: Rogers JA, Sheppard RJ, Grant EH, Bleehen NM, Honess DJ.

    Abstract:
    Microwaves are currently being investigated as a method of inducing hyperthermia. Values of the relative permittivity and conductivity of mouse muscle and tumour tissues over the frequency range 50 MHz to 10 GHz at a temperature of 37 degrees C are reported. The data were obtained by using an on-line computer-based time-domain spectrometer. The tumour tissues were the RIF/1 and KHT fibrosarcomas sited in the hind leg muscle of C3H mice. A significant difference in the relative permittivity between the normal and tumour tissue was shown to exist at frequencies up to 200 MHz.
