Electromagnetic Power Absorption in Tissues

  • Zahraa H. Mohammed

Abstract

 Electromagnetic waves are produced through the movement of electrically charged particles. These waves are called electromagnetic radiation because they emit radiation from electrically charged particles. These waves travel through empty space as well as through air and other materials. Electromagnetic waves at low frequencies are referred to as electromagnetic fields, and those at very high frequencies are called electromagnetic radiation. The reported effects of radiation radiation (RF) on tissues and organ systems are due to thermal reactions, although the presence of non-thermal effects at low field density is still being actively researched. The behavior of living tissues to electromagnetic wave propagation through it (i.e. microwave propagation) was analyzed. Experimental results were presented which expressed by mathematical equations (numerical equations using computer packages) relating the attenuation caused by the particular tissue to the electromagnetic wave (i.e. power lost in tissues) and the thickness of the tissue at frequency 10.4GHz. The practical system was implemented and carried out for two types of tissues, the sheep and cow meat. It was concluded that the numerical equations obtained depend upon the tissue type.
