Abstract
Newly developed microwave apparatus was used to measure the complex permittivity of some rabbit tissues and water over the temperature range 20-37 degrees C. Various liquid mixtures which might be suitable as phantom tissue equivalents at 35 GHz were also considered. Some of the measured tissue data were compared with previous lower frequency data and it was concluded that the observed behaviour was not anomalous.
