Lung carcinoma recognition by blood dielectric spectroscopy
Lung carcinoma has become one of the malignancies whose morbidity and mortality are growing significantly. Blood is a functional body fluid, it delivers oxygen and nutrients to the other parts of the body, and it is a pathway of tumor metastasis. This paper studies the possibility of diagnosing lung carcinoma by blood dielectric spectroscopy. Comparison experiments were carried out to trace the dielectric spectroscopy of blood with and without lung carcinoma changing at different tumor stages from 100 Hz to 100 MHz. The research results show that the discrepancy of complex permittivity between rat blood with and without lung carcinoma becomes significant with tumor growing, which is worthy for clinical diagnosis.
