Dielectric Properties of Biological Materials: Biophysical and Medical Applications
Abstract
A review is given of the dielectric properties of mammalian tissues for the frequency range 1 Hz to 10 GHz. Such information is of relevance to a number of medical diagnostic and therapeutic applications which involve the use of non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation, as well as to studies of the possible biological effects arising from exposure to electric and magnetic fields. Dielectric studies of tissues and biomolecules can also aid the further understanding of some biochemical and physiological processes. The dielectric properties of amino acids, proteins, biological electrolytes, cell membranes, tissue-bound water and of normal and cancerous tissues are discussed with the emphasis being directed at the underlying molecular and biophysical processes involved. Clinical aspects such as the hyperthermic treatment of cancer and the stimulation of bone healing are discussed also.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
