A heuristic model to evaluate the dielectric properties of human tissues at microwave band based on water and solid content

Abstract At the molecular level, body is composed, on average, of water for 62%, fat 15%, 17% protein, and 6% minerals. In this work, we propose a heuristic methodology using hydration models as base to realize an automatic noninvasive procedure estimate ad hoc map complex dielectric permittivity generic human tissue in frequency range microwaves based their solid content.
