A realistic human head phantom for electromagnetic detection of brain diseases by Zelin Bai, Diyou Chen, Ke Ma, Gui Jin, Jinlong Qiu, Quanquan Li, Haocheng Li, Mingsheng Chen

“…It proved valuable for studying the distribution of electromagnetic fields in the human head and for investigating novel electromagnetic detection techniques exploiting brain tissue dielectric properties. (4) The created physical model and the numerical model were derived from the same person, which provided a good continuity between simulation experiments and physical experiments, and provided a realistic verification platform for the research of electromagnetic detection technology for brain diseases, such as differentiating the kind of stroke, monitoring brain edema, brain tumor microwave imaging, and diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease.…”
