Dielectric Properties of Solid Tumors During Nonnothermia and Hyperthermia

Abstract
Dielectric properties of five rat mammary carcinomas, one rat glioma, and rat muscle were measured in vitro at 37 and 43 °C over a frequency range of 1 MHz-1 GHz. No significant differences were observed in the measured dielectric properties of normal and neoplastic tissues, presumably due to the high water content of both types of tissues.
