TLDR
The technology from virtual brain imaging stage to an imaging of normal human brain (volunteers study) and first imaging results are presented here.Abstract:
Electromagnetic Tomography, when matured, might present an effective supplement to current imaging modalities for fast and mobile diagnostic of stroke and for safe and easy to apply monitoring imaging technology for assessment of perfusion related brain injuries and an efficacy of treatment. We have advanced the technology from virtual brain imaging stage to an imaging of normal human brain (volunteers study). The developed EMT scanner for human brain imaging and first imaging results are presented here.read more

Electromagnetic Tomography for Detection, Differentiation, and Monitoring of Brain Stroke: A Virtual Data and Human Head Phantom Study.
TL;DR: There is no accurate way to provide reliable information about the key components of i-stroke physiology that include the position and size of the acute stroke (arterial occlusion), the core infarct region that contains irreversibly injured tissues, and the ischemic penumbra, i.e., the tissue that could potentially be restored by rapid revascularization.

The dielectric properties of biological tissues: II. Measurements in the frequency range 10 Hz to 20 GHz
TL;DR: Three experimental techniques based on automatic swept-frequency network and impedance analysers were used to measure the dielectric properties of tissue in the frequency range 10 Hz to 20 GHz, demonstrating that good agreement was achieved between measurements using the three pieces of equipment.
