Is there any information on micro-structure in microwave tomography of bone tissue?
In this work, two-dimensional simulations of the microwave dielectric properties of models with ellipses and realistic models of trabecular bone tissue are performed . In these simulations, finite difference time domain methodology has been applied to simulate two-phase structures containing inclusi...
